The Glamorous Toolkit project aims to reinvent the IDE (http://gtoolkit.org). Over the last two years the team has produced four significant tools that are part of Pharo: Playground, Inspector, Spotter, Debugger. In this demo-driven talk we exemplify how these tools can change the development workflow, and we sketch the broader perspective and outlook of the project.
