The Howdy Glossary

Racket is a general-purpose programming language based on the Scheme dialect of Lisp. It's designed for building new programming languages or domain-specific languages in particular. By providing support for pattern matching, first-class continuations, and list comprehensions, Racket makes it easier to express complex program logic in a clear and concise manner. Racket's IDE includes an editor with syntax highlighting and checking, a debugger, and support for managing multiple files within a project.
