Smalltalk isn't native!

It is a matter of implementation.

It was native on the Alto, as the primitives were implemented in microcode, which could be a FPGA nowadays.

Also Squeak and Pharo are implemented in Smalltalk.

When people complain about "Web" vs. "native", they are not talking about the Web versus the Xerox Alto.

Well I wish that web was able to achieve those boring native hypermedia systems from Xerox PARC, instead of squeezing a VM into a document platform.

Then one of the "RAD" tools from the nineties. Delphi maybe?
