Grafoscopio exists due to various limitations of Jupyter, particularly the lack of real support for objects in its core language - Python. JSON is not equivalent to STON even in terms of storing JavaScript, it's mainly a data format.

I've understood a key point of the Dynabook dream (and Smalltalk as prototype Dynabook software) is that as you drill down to something facing the end user, you keep the full power of the computer. For example, when Alan Kay presents, he doesn't use Powerpoint, but Squeak. Hence, the slides are each fully functioning World where one can e.g. bring up halos, inspectors, class browsers. Is that the case with Jupiter Notebooks? I assumed not since the notebooks seem to be saved as JSON, unless maybe it's used for object serialization like STON? ----- Cheers, Sean -- Sent from: http://forum.world.st/Pharo-Smalltalk-Users-f1310670.html
