LOVE this project. My serious question is why wasn't this done in Racket as opposed to Scheme? Seems this would fit in Dr Racket wonderfully.

- Johnny_Brahms 9y agoBecause racket isn't as easy to get running on smartphones as something that just compiles to C. With gambitc you are already there.
- peatmoss 9y agoI know that, with Racket's move to the Chez Scheme interpreter, bits of core Racket C code are getting rewritten in Racket (https://groups.google.com/forum/#!msg/racket-dev/2BV3ElyfF8Y/4RSd3XbECAAJ https://groups.google.com/forum/#!msg/racket-dev/2BV3ElyfF8Y...). I wonder if that might enable Racket to ultimately be able to run on other Schemes' infrastructure.
- codygman 9y ago> with Racket's move to the Chez Scheme interpreter, Is there a wiki or an issue to track progress of this?
- peatmoss 9y agoI don't know. I'm only familiar with it because of the Google Group posting and associated Hacker News story from a while back.
