What do you think is a good IDE for learning SmallTalk? I'll only be using it as a hobby, so it has to be free.

You should also consider Pharo. Pharo is a fork of Squeak. Their goals are:

  • a clean and lean open-source Smalltalk platform, derived from Squeak

  • the obvious choice for professional Smalltalk development

  • an emerging platform to help people invent the future

Whether it is Squeak or Pharo, there is a large, active and supportive community.
