To summarise I’d like to propose adding startup scripts manager to pharo

I'm not sure that there are startup scripts. But yes you got what I
meant. a super simple way to load a bunch of projects in another image
based on the current one.
What’s more, usually we are working on our one “project”. And as it’s a good
practice to start from a fresh image, we either have to load a configuration of
it into fresh images or download pre-built image from CI. And we are too bound
to CI because of image building. What I see as next step in the development
workflow, is to say to the launcher: I want this Project is this Image (3.0,
4.0) with this prefs (experiences). The launcher builds the thing and you can
work with it.
In general I like your idea a lot, but let’s have a little discussion to hear
what the others have to say.
:)
and I would like a button that say: snapshot this image as my project :)
(the system should have a way to know the system package versus others.
it should be possible with some metadata :)
I know that I'm lazy (and bored to redo all the time the same thing :))

Dear experience makers (Martin, yuriy, tommaso, roberto and others,)
you would like to have many people doing your experience.... I know you would
love that.
Here is my suggestion: ease the use of new images.
Each time I want to load the projects I'm hacking and I do not have a jenkins
for it, it is painful (setting up
the repos.... loading....). So I do not change often images and I'm reluctant
to load new stuff (like your experiments)
- build a simple little tool that could be integrated in pharo and would do
the following:
- let the user (un)/select some packages or configurations
- generate a script to reload these configurations really easily
This way I can load my project and then you provide a script for your
experience.
and after I can reload my project with your material for experience in my new
image.
Right now I do not like to hack the preference file because I have images where
I do not want any interference
So is my proposal clear?
