guix 2026-03-03

How difficult is it to learn gnu guile and gnu guix? I want to learn both, but I have to learn them from scratch. It's annoying to learn that much while I have actual work to do.

I'm having the same problem which is making it slow going for me

I guess I should just pay the up-front cost by making time for it.

Guile is very easy. In a few hours you can learn everything. The most complicated is the concept of recursion. But still easy. What for Clojure developers is unexpected is the way how Scheme is used as a DSL. Clojure developers prefer to use vectors, because vectors are not evalueted. In Scheme it is just lists. So they need more macros. "on lisp"
