Groovy is perfect for that.\n\n## Motive\nWell think about, the JVM is simply a virtual machine and it is dynamic but I have never seen a Smalltalk like environment for JVM. I think the main reason is that JVM languages are mostly static typed and generate bytecode from typed programs. \n\nGroovy allows a syntax nearly identical to java but it break the type dependency and generates byte code that is dynamic. Why not make one, in groovy?\n\n## Groovy Advantages\n- Can execute from a string at runtime\n- Has seamless intergration with Java and the JVM\n- Metaprogramming\n- Dynamic typing\n- Checked Optional Static Typing\n\n## Screenshots\n\n\u003ctable\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n        \u003cth colspan=\"2\"\u003eLatest Screenshots\u003c/th\u003e\n    \u003c/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n        \u003ctd\u003e\u003cimg src=\"vm/share/assets/screenshots/VM_Running_HelloApp.png\"/\u003e\u003c/td\u003e\n        \u003ctd\u003e\u003cimg src=\"vm/share/assets/screenshots/VM_With_Wallpaper.png\"/\u003e\u003c/td\u003e\n    \u003c/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n        \u003ctd\u003eThe VM rendering the welcome window.\u003c/td\u003e\n        \u003ctd\u003eThe VM showing the desktop with a wallpaper\u003c/td\u003e\n    \u003c/tr\u003e\n\u003c/table\u003e\n\n\n## Building\n#### Requirements\n- *JVM*\n- *Gradle*\n- *Groovy*\n\n#### Build Steps\n```sh\n\n$ git clone git@github.com:hexaredecimal/GroovyVMExperiment.git\n$ cd GroovyVMExperiment\n$ cd gradle run\n```\n\n\n## References\n- [Pharo SmallTalk](https://pharo.org/)\n- [Squeak](https://squeak.org/)\n- [Interlisp](https://interlisp.org/)\n\n\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fhexaredecimal%2Fgroovyvmexperiment","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fhexaredecimal%2Fgroovyvmexperiment","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fhexaredecimal%2Fgroovyvmexperiment/lists"}
