Will Rehwinkel#askfedi I'm starting to learn #scheme as a possible alternative for using #go #golang in the future, especially for servers, backend type stuff. I was wondering if you could recommend a scheme implementation to use. I'm looking for one that is R7RS-compliant and has good documentation. Right now I am planning to use #mitscheme #gnuscheme. Thanks
Remco@fiskfan1999 I prefer #guile over #mitscheme because it is easier to script and shows stack trace's out of the box. Also it supports #r7rs (small). Note that no scheme platform exists that implements r7rs because it is not finished yet.

A nice overview of #R7RS (Revised Report on the Algorithmic Language Scheme) and a bit of #scheme history. https://youtu.be/y8qaitWSDW0 https://justinethier.github.io/cyclone/docs/r7rs.pdf
