I see... so Racket is the most likely choice for work. Obviously won't use it for my office though, considering Scheme devs here are practically... zero.

Or probably I'll just use Scheme for learning compiler dev :) :D

This is readable and interesting - https://legacy.cs.indiana.edu/~dyb/papers/3imp.pdf Dybvig's dissertation (he wrote chez scheme) it's easy to follow.

IMHO, it's a lot easier to write compilers in Haskell or ocaml, for a bunch of reasons. you might take a look at https://wespiser.com/writings/wyas/00_overview.html which walks through writing a scheme implementation in Haskell.

Do what's fun. I think both of those are worth poking at.

Ah seems fascinating. Bookmarked.
