Squeak 6.1 just got released! After more than 4 years of work, our community has put together a big bouquet of new capabilities and improvements:

- A new tree browser for navigating and organizing classes
- Objectland, bringing back and extending the colorful world of examples from Squeak 3
- Plenty of new features, bugfixes, and speed-ups for programming tools, the Morphic UI framework, and the rest of the system

Check out the release notes & download Squeak 6.1 here: https://squeak.org/release_notes/6.1/

Different new Squeak tools and elements arranged around the Squeak mouse icon: a tree browser, a debugger in bytecode mode, "Fun with Graphics", "Fun with Sounds", and a BlobMorph with a halo. The Squeak mouse wears a party hat and is covered in confetti.
