Smalltalk is the original object oriented language and has inspired many of today’s languages including javascript. It is really neat in that it is not just a language, it is a whole environment. A virtual machine that runs your code and that you program in with a built-in editor.
There are no files, everything is saved in an image.
Runs on mac, win, linux, ios, android, rasp pi or in the browser.

Some small code snippets if u want to take a peek:
And a short overview that gives a nice picture of what Phaor/Smalltalk is:
