We've been working hard for over ten years to make Dolphin Smalltalk the programming system you see today. As you probably know, we sell the Professional Edition of Dolphin as our top-end product but this is a difficult marketplace to be in when many companies are willing to give away their software development tools (e.g. Sun's JDK and IBM's Eclipse) as loss leaders for their own particular agendas.
We firmly believe that Smalltalk is a far better way of creating software than most of the other programming environments out there. It's for this reason that we created our Community Edition of Dolphin; so that anyone can experience the power of Smalltalk without having to make an upfront purchase of several hundred dollars.
Naturally, we hope you'll want to purchase Dolphin Professional eventually but if you think that this is beyond your means and that you would rather stay with the free version for now, then maybe you'd consider a small donation instead. If you'd like to contribute (and help support Dolphin Smalltalk into the future) just click on one of the links below. Just pay what you think the product is worth and what you can afford.
Whatever you decide to contribute; Thanks!
