Line 1: {{implementation\|Smalltalk}}'''Smalltalk/X''' is a free implementation of the [[:Category:Smalltalk\|Smalltalk]] programming language~~. For download, see [http://www.smalltalk-x.de http://www.smalltalk-x.de]~~. <br>For download, see [http://www.smalltalk-x.de http://www.smalltalk-x.de]. The Smalltalk/X package includes IDE, class libraries, an OS independent window framework, debugger, compilers, UI builders and many other tools. Smalltalk/X is a "state of the art" system, with a modern generational garbage collector, incremental non-disruptive background collector for old objects. It includes a big class library with packages for XML, SOAP, database access (also NoSQL), communication protocols, web clients and servers and much more. It also includes a modern IDE which supports syntax highlighting, refactoring, code instrumentation, coverage and unit tests. In addition to bytecode execution (which is translated just in time to machine code), it also includes a Smalltalk-to-C compiler which ~~can be~~is used to generate binary executables and binary class libraries without ~~any~~a need for the bytecode engine and without ~~any~~the IDE (if packaged as such). Both UI and non-UI applications can be generated (eg. web servers, Windows services etc.) Although not normally used as such, it can be executed as a scripting language with a REPL loop. It is available for Windows, Linux, OS X and other Unix-based platforms (upon request).
