<p>Hi Giorgio,</p>
<p>Thanks for your feedback!</p>
<p><b>Short answer to your questions.</b> <br>
</p>
<p>The book is not for you. Or any of us. ;-)<br>
</p>
<p>It is for Cuis users that don't know Cuis yet!</p>
<p>Nevertheless, we need you, experts, to review the book. It is a
task where your only benefit is the satisfaction to give something
without much in return, it will make you happier[1].<br>
</p>
<p><b>Long answer to your questions.</b></p>
<p>This is something to be documented in other book or booklet. The
more documentation on Cuis the more Cuis will have attention.</p>
<p>Do you have experience in the use of web/database with Cuis? I
have with Pharo (Seaside, Mango, Sqlite). I prototype a Pharo
loans restructuring web application in my spare time for 2 years,
but I gave up (kind of lost confident in the financial success of
the project).<br>
</p>
<p>I don't know the state of the art with Cuis. Could you enlighten
us, preferably in another mail thread?<br>
</p>
<p>Thanks</p>
<p>Hilaire<br>

<div>I'm at least shocked by the amount of documentation you (and
the other guys) did in this short timeframe, and generally I
think the book is really good. Now, my questions..<br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>What is, as of today, the role of Smalltalk (or Cuis in
particular, because other Smalltalks cover, at least in some
way, the problems I will mention)?. The world where I live needs
at least two things to make a programming
language/development system useful:</div>
<div>
<ul>
<li>web capabilities (I just need to expose REST API or
GraphQL API)<br>
</li>
<li>data-base capabilities (I just need a place for persisting
my data, Postgres? Mongo? etc)</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div>None of these are mentioned in the book (or I
didn't find them). Could this be a problem for someone wanting
to embrace Cuis? Or the target for Cuis users is limited to
desktop self contained applications?</div>
<div>I know you can try to check the different repositories, but
some basic chapters on these 2 items could help.</div>
<div>These are just my 2 cents...</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>In any case, thanks a lot for the huge and very good work you
did, </div>
