Sure can... Morphic is a different beast, very malleable, glitchy too for now, much better with clean up in Pharo. But the future may see major shifts if Bloc comes through.
Spec and my own effort on Pharo Morphic View.. ** https://picasaweb.google.com/skrishnamachari/PharoTabletIDE ** http://skrishnamachari.wordpress.com/2014/09/01/reviving-pharo-morphic-view/ ease the creation a lot.. My effort was a proof I had of how utterly malleable Pharo / Squeak actually is.. I could knock in a new IDE interface with Tree structured code IDE, A simple but effective enterprise class UI framework in around couple of months.. Yes going deeper and getting it technically perfect is much more effort.. But for sure, if you are not weighed down by a career and want to enjoy a ride in the programming world.. nothing better than Pharo Smalltalk for now to hitch too.. though I would enjoy Groovy, Javascript, Python or Ruby for their own uniqueness but primarily as related in the dynamic programming world. -Enjoy..
