Hi Konrad,

Correct, the minimal image is running on SqueakJS VM. You can find info
here: https://squeak.js.org

Interesting question regarding deployment. In my current setup you do need
the server, but it is not unrealistic to have a setup in which at some point
the client is asked to create a snapshot. The SqueakJS VM does allow this.
This snapshot could be stored somewhere as a final application. It could
even be possible to stop the communicator and remove it (as well as a few
other classes) from the image before taking the snapshot and kind of sealing
the application like that.

So it could be a way of creating standalone web applications. If that was
the thought behind the question.

I did use this mechanism of creating snapshots in an attempt to strip down a
regular Pharo image and create the small image to run inside the browser.
Until I decided that route was longer than doing the bootstrap route of
creating an image from scratch ;-).

Regards,
Erik
