@soegaard2 Thanks. I really don’t have at the moment a use for this particular kind of application but was interested in helping the development of a something like a Racket -> JS (or WebAssembly) compiler. I found whalesong and sounded like just what I wanted. Will take a look at Racketscript. Urlang is an interesting approach but I really want to write Racket, not yet another language. So I am, in the long term, more interested in getting Whalesong to work that to learn something else. :slightly_smiling_face: Thanks for the pointers on issue 48. I will take a look at the source code and see what I can grasp.

If you have any question on the Whalesong just ask. I can’t guarantee that I know the answer though. Unfortunately Danny is no longer involved.

@pocmatos on the Racket -> WebAssembly front, with RacketOnChez the following might become feasible in the future: https://github.com/google/schism

I can’t wait for the Racket->WASM project to start :slightly_smiling_face: Count me in!

@githree didn’t know about that project (from google!?!?!?) Thanks for the referenc.e

Looks more like a side project of Eric Holk though, but still it is in google repo

@mflatt is there a chance for a post (blog or mailing list) summarizing the “state of racket” talk for those of us who didn’t attend racketcon?

Yes (or planned, at least), in two parts. The first part will be a blog post that mostly reflects the Racket-on-Chez results that I reported at the Scheme workshop. That talk was recorded, so I expect it will be available as video at some point. The second will be a how-to post on modifying Racket-on-Chez.

Excellent, thank you!

FYI, the Google repo thing is probably just an artifact of Google’s open source copyright policies. If you use your corporate laptop to create a project, you can only open source it on GitHub through the http://github.com/google\|github.com/google org. You can’t put it under your own account.

It doesn’t matter if the project is or isn’t related to anything that Google is officially doing

Thanks for the info

Hello, is there a resource you can recommend on how to use reactor with racket/gui ?

thanks!

other resources on reactive programming racket are also welcome (note that I know about FrTime!)

Hi there!

Ive been doing this by having a single reactor for the GUI, and having each even handler call react!. But I’m still settling on the API for reactor (hense it being unstable) so maybe there will be better integration in the future!

hum sounds good! do you have a project I can check out online? thanks!

oh your the lead of reactor! didn’t realize that :stuck_out_tongue:

I am actually trying to convert a ReactiveML n-body / planets example to reactor, not sure if I’ll succeded since I am completely new to the reactor pattern and ReactiveML (but think it will help in understanding it). Any resources you’d recommend to learn about the pattern (preferably not Java :P)? thanks!
