To what others already have written I will add: >From time to time one can copy ideas from Racket or look at what exists in Racket for solving a problem or seeing what the approach is. Catonano identified already the lack of examples in the Guile guide. I fight with that myself, so I created a repository with examples. Perhaps I should somehow add them to the guide. I've not looked into how to do that. Probably some commit in a repo somewhere for the guide: https://notabug.org/ZelphirKaltstahl/guile-examples Hope this can help! If you want to create something the Guile ecosystem lacks, I guess you can find things from other language ecosystems, but it is probably a good idea to ask in specific about anything existing on the mailing list and I don't know where else. So far we have GNU Artanis and the very basic web server module(s). So in the area of web development on the server side, there is probably a lot of space for improvements. On the other hand we Schemers are often minimalistic people in our approach to programming. Or is that by accident? Regards, Zelphir
