I used Maui for many parts of the UI of a large cellular wireless simulator project I worked on a couple of years ago. It made the task of developing many UI components almost free. Very cool stuff.

It's like you're looking directly at the actual object, but with a lens that lets you see more clearly than the standard inspector. In some ways, it reminds me of Self and its Outliners.

But if I need to do an application I will do it with Maui but let it die if I got to do it with morphic because it is too much work and very too long. So Maui is a must for users of Squeak who just love to do small applications for them, applications  they can use in everyday life.
