[wishlist] Make Matthew's doc-define from ClojureWest keynote real #60
Comments
Is there a link to this reference/video? |
I think it refers to slide 149 at https://raw.githubusercontent.com/strangeloop/clojurewest2013/master/slides/sessions/Flatt-MetaprogrammingTime.pdf Video: https://www.infoq.com/presentations/racket-metaprogramming/ (documentation stuff starts at 44:56) |
One thing I like about python is it's docstring system and |
Clojure's define forms allow arbitrary metadata to be attached to a symbol in a map: if racket and/or rhombus had something similar, it could be used for standard things (docs, types, contracts, what have you) and also for more interesting things (which I have not dreamt of). |
If we use scribble would that mean it would be possible to have executable code blocks within the documentation like Rust's Documentation tests? If so I think that would be great for the same reasons outlined on that page. |
from Wishlist of backwards incompatible things for a future Racket2. #33
