#hoot — Public Fediverse posts

@paniash

Hello Ashish,

Good to connect with you, since we are on the same path.

I have been a GNU/Emacs user since 1996, and I admit awkwardly, that I am only now beginning to learn LISP.

Here's a brief book I came across, that gives a good introduction to the LISP world, and contrasts various dialects.

https://github.com/cloudstreet-dev/Lisp-in-2025/blob/main/01-introduction.md

I am interested in learning Emacs LISP, first, since I could immediately put it to good use and get some value out of it. Also the warm fuzzies from knowing that I spend all my time in an editor environment that is freshly augmentated with my new code, in the language I am currently most excited about.

Next, I want to look into ClojureScript, since I am interested in replacing JavaScript as a client side scripting language, in the next generation of the Web.

Although, #Hoot from the #Spritely institute is the candidate I am most excited about, since it compiles LISP to WASM directly, and cuts out the fugliness of JS. It's in v0.9 and I will contribute to it, as soon as I am able.

Let's share LISP learning resources, and keep a web site of general interest in the subject, for everyone.

@cwebber is flying to DWeb Camp on a Hooting owl with a platoon of Goblins to introduce “@spritely: painting a new vision for the Internet”

Does the existence of this imply people could use Hoot to write microcontroller code in scheme? It seems like it does right?

#hoot #scheme

New note on my website:

> Lately I've been spending time learning Scheme and using it to implement the concepts I'm learning in my physics classes as time permits. One of the most exciting things I've been doing with this is getting my Scheme to compile to the Web thanks to Hoot.

#Scheme #Hoot #Guile #WASM

Found out about this while i was scrolling through andy windo blog, #Wastrel compiles Wasm modules to C, and thence to native code. we can compile #guilescheme #hoot code to native code.

https://codeberg.org/andywingo/wastrel

Hoot 0.9.0 has been released! Time to update my project.

I'm going to like the new hoot compile --bundle command

#scheme #hoot

Finally got some of my physics code running on the Web via Hoot!

Right now it's just a barebones Lorentz transformation visualization tool. Most of the work was under the hood.

https://gracefulliberty.com/physics/

It took a lot of digging around documentation, examples, issue trackers, and source code, but I made it happen and I'm making progress on creating more physics simulations.

#Physics #Hoot #Scheme

Been working on porting my physics simulations to the Web with #WASM via #Hoot.

Something like they did here: https://spritely.institute/news/building-interactive-web-pages-with-guile-hoot.html

I've been having to thoroughly read the examples, documentation, and hit my head against the wall, but I'm making progress! Still can't seem to get canvas drawing to work though.

#Guile #Scheme #programming

Whoa what on earth is this Scheme evaluation visualization tool named EnvDraw made in Hoot? https://jmacd.github.io/envdraw/

And apparently EnvDraw has existed since 1995 and this is a port! Here's an old mailing list post https://groups.google.com/g/comp.lang.scheme/c/AU3HKB9plKk/m/TCkArQA51rcJ

Cool as hell

Trying out #hoot from #spritelyinstitute which is a #guile to #wasm compiler.
If you have an external emacs like I do and still use guix package manager for guile packages.

guix install guile-goblins guile-hoot guile-next

create a file (use-modules) then
open shell,
guild compile-wasm --run <your_example.scm> file.

#spritely #hoot in a toot: how to deploy #Guile #Scheme as static website via #webassembly (complete #Wisp example).

The code from the two attached images, as written, runs on
https://www.draketo.de/software/hoot.html

Try it out!

It’s two pages from Naming & Logic: Programming Essentials with Wisp.

This adds parallel fetches (do you see where?). If you adopt it, ensure that your server compresses application/wasm.

Do You Have A Different Opinion?

Out of the blue decided to install GNU Guix-1.4.0 on my GNU Debian 13 (Trixie) machine. Now I have Haunt and Guile Hoot running on my machine. What a joyful Tuesday.

The (hoot hoot) example from the manual works fine. Baby steps but steps anyway.

Guile Hoot IDE. My grant proposal for #nlnet, I didn't have much time to prepare it carefully this year, but I guess the primary ideas should be clear.

@cwebber, @dthompson, @wingo how it looks? :)

@spritely did you already see the illustration in Naming & Logic for Deployment in the browser via Hoot?

@indieterminacy Regarding #WASM: #hoot may already be able to provide a sufficiently full-featured REPL. Deployment of applications as WASM already works:

https://www.draketo.de/software/programming-scheme#deploy-hoot-wasm

⇒ https://www.draketo.de/software/hoot.html

I started to integrate a web repl (see what wasm the article page imports ☺). Trying to follow https://spritely.institute/hoot/ → https://files.spritely.institute/embeds/hoot-0.6.0-repl/ (but that repl does not support (define (a . b) b) yet -- I need support for all examples in the book to use it)

Finally got this to work: dynamicland-style wikipedia viewer! Original demo by Bret Victor linked on the page. Try it out here: https://deosjr.github.io/dynamicland/wiki.html

Now working on a write-up of what had to change in order to make this work. Powered by #Hoot
