rant warning...
I tried racket but just could not get namespaces to work, and the tool I was using, ometa for scheme[1] did not want to work properly without them. I spent hours, asked on the chat, read the documentation, etc. but just could not get it working. It felt like a bad omen, and ever since I've unfortunately been put off the language. The whole response I got/the documentation treated the whole thing as 'well it's obvious - foobar the fargle', where 'foobar the fargle' just made no sense to me. Maybe just not clever enough for racket...

- MaysonL 15y agoInterestingly enough, the latest update [4 months ago] to ometa for scheme has the following description: Update mzscheme namespace usage for eval to use namespace anchors
- singular 15y agoSweet - maybe the author made a bit more progress than I did :-) I ought to check it out, I've not taken a look at the project for >1yr.
