Hello all!

Relatively new to the Racket ecosystem and trying to figure out how to create an "app" from the GUI library. Has anyone written a tutorial on this or have suggestions on where to start to generate this? For context, I'm used to the Javascript ecosystem and have built apps with Electron. I'm looking to migrate to a more robust lisp-y environment when developing native apps and not sure where to start here.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,
Travis

The simplest way is to select "Create Executable..." from the "Racket"
menu in DrRacket.  Select "GRacket" as the base if your program uses a
graphical interface.

For more options, see the "raco" command line tool:
