One thing I like about Go is the Go Playground and the Tour of Go. Is there something similar for Racket? Obviously, I can use the REPL or DrRacket and that's fine. But what I would love is a site where I can play with existing code that teaches me various aspects of the language. Nothing beats breaking things to teach how things work.

Side note: brand new to Racket and so far I really like it. Plus, I find the documentation to be outstanding — on a par with the FreeBSD handbook.

This list covers probably the closest options (not sure about a Tour, though): [Running Racket in the cloud](https://racket.discourse.group/t/running-racket-in-the-cloud/878)

Yeah, a tour would be nice. But thank you, these will come in handy for other purposes.

Hi @tvilot Welcome!

The closest thing to the Tour is [Quick: An Introduction to Racket with Pictures](https://docs.racket-lang.org/quick/index.html)

There is also

- [More: Systems Programming with Racket](https://docs.racket-lang.org/more/index.html)
- [Continue: Web Applications in Racket](https://docs.racket-lang.org/continue/index.html) which introduces you to modules and building web applications.

The [Getting started](https://docs.racket-lang.org/getting-started/index.html) page has more details

Best regards  
Stephen
