A nice write up (written two years ago).
I don’t think that the DrRacket UI deserves the criticism in this article. I usually use Emacs for lisp languages (Common Lisp, various Schemes, and Haskell) but DrRacket is good enough.
The beautiful thing is that we all get to decide what programming languages we want to use. It is true that sometimes our jobs force a language on us, but we have freedom to peruse jobs using tools that we prefer. For a personal project, I recently used Swift and SwiftUI. Swift is a great modern language as is Rust.
Racket is amazing, great community around it. I started writing a Racket AI book a year ago, but shelved the project because of other commitments. I hope to get back to that someday.
Anyway, try to use the language(s) you prefer.
