Those .sdep files are used to track dependencies, so that building again can skip unnecessary work when files haven’t changed.

What’s your preference for displaying code in a presentation, light or dark background? I’m not sure if there is a difference for in-person vs. virtual, but this is for our virtual RacketCon. If it just comes down to personal preference i.e. how you have your editor setup, then I suppose this question is unhelpful, but if there are good presentation specific reasons, that would be good to know.

I’m using slideshow so maybe just using the default code is the way to go.

I’m not sure about code specifically, but I’ve seen advice that having a dark background in general for slides reduces eye fatigue in the audience, particularly since most rooms are darkened for presentations

I think I read something similar, and I have a dark background for my editor, email, etc. and like it.
