Use Racket with Rhombus
You can use Racket with Rhombus.
Here is a simple example
First my design for the perfect fish in glorious Racket (the language of the gods):
the-fish.rkt
```scheme
lang racket/base
(require pict) (provide perfect_fish) (define (perfect_fish n) (standard-fish n (/ n 2))) (module+ test (perfect_fish 100)) ```
Lets render this fabulous fish in Rhombus:
programmers-need-fish.rhm
```python
lang rhombus
import: pict open "the-fish.rkt" open
fun the_perfect_fish(w): Pict.from_handle(perfect_fish(w))
the_perfect_fish(200) ```
You may have noticed that I used an underscore _ in the perfect_fish identifier. This is because - is not permitted in Rhombus identifiers:
Identifiers are formed from Unicode alphanumeric characters plus _ and emoji sequences,
https://docs.racket-lang.org/shrubbery/token-parsing.html
(I admit I'm not ready to include emoji in identifiers)
For more details see Using Racket Tools and Libraries in the Rhombus Guide.
Make an image with Rhombus this summer! Win stickers! https://racket.discourse.group/t/summer-rhombus-picture-competition-2026/4282
