Congratulation Stephane on completing this book.
I feel it is crucial. It removes a major hurdle for new, part time and/or returning programmers to get the UI they need for their Pharo programs. For me, it also helps me advocating for Pharo with my colleagues. Cheers Mark PS Now if some clever person could write a UI builder that would be even better! (eg like Dolphin, Enfin/2 used to have..) Such tools are such valuable time savers.

Writing this book was a daunting huge difficult exhausting task that took me around 4 years or more. This publisher is managed using a not so great Php software and I can tell you that you can feel it when you have to manage the books.
