Scheme Cookbook

This project aims to create a new and improved cookbook for the Scheme programming language.

If you want to contribute, just create a new issue using the Recipe template.

You can contribute by:

  • Describing a common problem as a question.
  • Posting both a problem and a solution.

You can also comment on the existing problems and solutions.

Why a new cookbook?

We started by resurrecting the Schematics Scheme Cookbook from Archive.org. However, the license is unclear and we could not reach anyone among the original authors who could explain it to us. The cookbook is also pretty outdated at this point.

The new cookbook should emphasize modern R7RS and R6RS solutions and use SRFIs for things that are not covered by the standard. However, other solutions are also accepted.
