SqueakMaps is a Squeak map client developed by the SqueakMaps dev team SWT22-12. It offers satellite imagery, as well as various street maps from OpenStreetMaps, Bing and Thunderforest. Routes from one location to another are calculated using OpenRouteService, which in addition provides distance and time information for different vehicles.
The project was completely build with Squeak/Smalltalk and is based on the legacy project TiledMaps by Tony Garnock-Jones.
Be sure to have the following installed:
- Squeak 5.3 or later
- Metacello
- Morphic Testing Framework (for development)
Older versions of Squeak won't work due to a bug.

When using an API for the first time a window will popup requesting the corresponding key. After that your key will be saved. You can change these using the manage api keys button.
