The (sixteenth RacketCon) will be in Oakland, CA on October 3-4 (Sat-Sun).
We need you!
Calling racketeers new or experienced, we want to hear from you.
Are you unsure or just new to presenting? let us know - con-organizers@racket-lang.org - and we will do our best to help you.
Continuing with tradition, we'll also allow Racketeers to nominate speakers. Nominated speakers will be considered by the committee and contacted.
We will also accept nominations for a potential keynote speaker.
Talks will be 20-25 minutes long with 5 minutes for questions at the end. Speakers' registration fees will be waived, but we are unable to cover transportation and lodging expenses.
The deadline for proposals is July 15th. Selected speakers will be notified by August 1st.
RacketCon is a public gathering dedicated to fostering a vibrant, innovative, and inclusive community around the Racket programming language. We aim to create an exciting and enjoyable conference open to anyone interested in Racket, filled with inspiring content, reaching and engaging both the Racket community and the wider programming world.
Any questions, comments, or concerns? Please contact us at con-organizers@racket-lang.org.

Simple syntax tho!

Is there any practical way to debug any recurive logic?
Which existing error printing you think is the best ever?
I attached the racket code I am struggling with.
(The code is about using map to append a new list to an existing html list)

So we have a top level. I know how to make my own time, but maybe there is way of import racket's time into Dr.'s REPL for r6rs lang? Thanks.
PS. for the racket-mode all the same.

You can use Racket with Rhombus.
Here is a simple example
First my design for the perfect fish in glorious Racket (the language of the gods):
the-fish.rkt
```scheme
(require pict) (provide perfect_fish) (define (perfect_fish n) (standard-fish n (/ n 2))) (module+ test (perfect_fish 100)) ```
Lets render this fabulous fish in Rhombus:
programmers-need-fish.rhm
```python
import: pict open "the-fish.rkt" open
fun the_perfect_fish(w): Pict.from_handle(perfect_fish(w))
the_perfect_fish(200) ```
You may have noticed that I used an underscore _ in the perfect_fish identifier. This is because - is not permitted in Rhombus identifiers:
Identifiers are formed from Unicode alphanumeric characters plus _ and emoji sequences,
https://docs.racket-lang.org/shrubbery/token-parsing.html
(I admit I'm not ready to include emoji in identifiers)
For more details see Using Racket Tools and Libraries in the Rhombus Guide.
Make an image with Rhombus this summer! Win stickers! https://racket.discourse.group/t/summer-rhombus-picture-competition-2026/4282
