    The library for dealing with files in Pharo is called FileSystem. It offers an expressive and elegant object-oriented design. This chapter presents the key aspects of the API to cover most of the needs one may have.

    FileSystem is the result of long and hard work from many people. FileSystem was originally developed by Colin Putney and the library is distributed under the MIT license, as for most components of Pharo. Camillo Bruni made some changes to the original design. Camillo Bruni integrated it into Pharo with the help of Esteban Lorenzano and Guillermo Polito. This chapter would not exist without the previous work of all the contributors of FileSystem. We are grateful to all of them.
