Scheme containers

(Project-wide issues and a central wiki are kept in this repo.)

This is a project by Scheme actives to support the community with up-to-date containers of ready-to-run Scheme implementations. We currently make only Docker containers, since that's we know and use ourselves. Other container platforms can be added if there is demand.

Each container foo is run as follows.

To enter the REPL (read-eval-print loop):

docker run -it schemers/gambit

To enter a Linux bash shell (useful with compile-to-C implementations):

docker run -it schemers/chicken bash

To use an older version of the implementation:

docker run -it schemers/guile:2.2

Or an alternative flavor:

docker run -it schemers/loko:base

Or both at once:

docker run -it schemers/ironscheme:1-mono
