The most practical way forwards for that might be Guile bindings

How does this empower users? Sure, if the user is a programmer they
can modify their custom microkernel in Scheme, but then you have a very
niche OS that practically no other s
Never tried it myself, but in case you are interested in exploring
Scheme for this kind of development, check Loko Scheme, which runs on
bare-metal and is developed to be a "platform for application and
operating system development":

As mentioned, Scheme lacks various things that you might need to
implement a bare-metal microkernel (for example manual memory
management).
There is PreScheme
(https://thintz.com/resources/prescheme-documentation) - a low-level
dialect of Scheme that gives you the necessary primitives. PreScheme
Personally, I don't think Guile (as Scheme) is suitable for a system level
language for low-level programming. But it's a good choice to use Guile to
extend a C implemented microkernel.
Such a design, is actually the real GNU operating system described in
imagination. So the question should be: is

Many folks shared great Scheme for lower-level. I think I have to clarify
that I agree that Scheme is good for low-level, depends on implementation.
But we are talking about Guile, and Guile was not designed for that
purpose, it's dedicated to extend C program, so the better choice is to
extend a C

Agreed, Guile's design was widened. But I think we are talking about
different "low-level", for Hurd, Guile can be used to write OS components,
say, filesystem. However, except for GNU Mach, most OS components are
implemented in userland, and Guile is good for that, this is what it's
designed for.

I considered embedding a scheme interpreter into a kernel for fun (!)
but even then (non-commercial interest), I only thought o
