¶An experiment…

¶Let’s Check Out Guile Libraries!
Since we’re going to be talking about Guile more on the channel this year, I thought it might be useful to scan through the list of Guile libraries and programs that use it to see what we can do with the language.
If we have time, we might try to build a simple test app to put a few of them together!
M-x eww https://www.gnu.org/software/guile/libraries/
Useful built-in libraries:
- Web Client/Server: https://www.gnu.org/software/guile/manual/html_node/Web.html
- SXML: https://www.gnu.org/software/guile/manual/html_node/SXML.html
