What is Racket?
Racket (formerly known as PLT Scheme) is a modern programming language within the Lisp/Scheme family, suitable for a wide range of applications. It extends beyond Lisp and Scheme by offering dialects that support objects, types, laziness, and more. Racket enables programmers to link components written in different dialects and empowers them to create new, project-specific dialects. The Racket library supports applications ranging from web servers and databases to GUIs and graphics. Racket comes with an IDE called DrRacket (previously known as DrScheme).
