To the lisp / scheme curious:
I'd suggest installing Racket, opening DrRacket and going through this tutorial: http://docs.racket-lang.org/quick/
You'll be coding fun things in mere minutes... even with no lisp or even *any* programming experience!
Writing a web application is only a few lines away: http://docs.racket-lang.org/continue/index.html
Try it! I promise you'll have fun!
One fun thing about that first tutorial is that it's very accessible to non compsci/math people... because instead of building strings or "objects" or doing math, you're building pictures, live! And DrRacket makes it very easy to get going!
@cwebber Do you know Pollen (http://docs.racket-lang.org/pollen/)? It's made by the guy that wrote https://practicaltypography.com/ (and, of course, that book is written in Pollen).
@estebanm Oh I heard about this but couldn't remember what its name was... thanks!
@cwebber I haven't actually used Pollen, but the book Practical Typography I can recommend, it's great if you're into that sort of thing.
