With #guix , #spritely and todays mention of guile emacs on hacker news...

It's just a matter of time before I fall into the Guile rabbit hole, isn't it?

@simendsjo @robinheghan It's a great rabbit hole to fall down :)

And yes I'm biased but I think the work we're doing at @spritely makes it all the more exciting ;)

@cwebber @simendsjo @spritely

Being a language developer myself, I've been following @wingo 's work on Hoot with interest, and with that I was exposed to all this other great stuff.

So this is all his fault, really.

@cwebber Spritely Hoot is one of the tools for distributing Guile "business logic" to all possible systems.

That’s why I describe it as part of deployment:
draketo.de/software/programmin

With that as base and nginx as SSL terminator, you can now have Guile all the way down.

Your server runs Guile, the client (browser) runs Guile via hoot, other clients (commandline?) may run Guile itself, too, to avoid the heavy cost of starting a webserver.

⇒ consistent behavior.

@simendsjo @robinheghan the typical programmer environment for Guile is just regular emacs though, right?

@sun @robinheghan Yes, I bet the majority use Emacs. scheme-mode, geiser or the new arei and ares by @abcdw of and fame.
