When you talk about Amber on Android you must think of middle to high end hardware. Even if it's a tablet. On a mid-low end device it will be completely unusable. It is not an Amber only thing, it also applies to any other JS based app. Android's Webview is 3x slower than Chrome, among other quirk

Pharo as a community has support to use its CI server, among other goodies such as SmalltalkHub. But what if your code is not public and you want to have a central repository and continuous builds? Has anybody ever wrote a guide to develop with Pharo in the context of private development? So far
