<numerobis>Hello! I am writing a website in guile, and was wondering whether there was a tutorial somewhere about how to use guile with fastCGI? I've looked around on the web but haven't found anything yet. Thank you!

<nalaginrut>numerobis: I'd recommend you try GNU Artanis rather than fastCGI
<numerobis>nalaginrut:Thank you for the recommendation! But do you think that GNU Artanis is still maintained today? Reading through the documentation, I saw that some things are still #todo, so I'm afraid it won't be fully functional. Also, it seems that the website of GNU Guile does not use it...
<OrangeShark>numerobis: I think GNU pages for software only support static pages.
<OrangeShark>numerobis: and nalaginrut is the maintainer of GNU Artanis
<numerobis>OrangeShart: I don't really know much about the terminology related to website, but it seems to me that the content of site of Guile (code at http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guile/guile-web.git) is generated by guile code dynamically. But since GNU Artanis is still maintained, that's probably easier to use. The only thing that still makes me hesitate is that there isn't a Nix package for it, and I don't have
<numerobis>experience in building one myself. But I guess that'll be a good opportunity to learn. :) Do you know if there is a repository somewhere with an example of a website built with GNU Artanis? Thank you!
<OrangeShark>numerobis: The GNU Guile website uses haunt, a static site generator, see https://haunt.dthompson.us/
<OrangeShark>I am not aware of any example websites built with GNU Artanis, would probably be best to ask nalaginrut.
<OrangeShark>or ask the GNU Artanis mailing list to see if anyone will link their website
<numerobis>OrangeShark:Oh, that's really interesting, thank you! And good idea, I think I'll send an email to the mailing list.

<dustyweb>ArneBab_: is there a wisp pretty-printer?:
<ArneBab_>dustyweb: not yet
<ArneBab_>dustyweb: for wisp it currenty uses source-properties to provide something like that
<civodul>hmm module reloading vs. "generative" record types
