Hi,

As part of the [Summer #lang Party](https://racket.discourse.group/t/summer-lang-party/1128) I’m hosting two short meet-ups on Saturday to help people get started on their own language. In the spirit of the event I’ll be working through a tutorial on making my own #lang and doing a deep-dive on the riposte source code to better understand how that works.

Don’t know where to start? Too many ideas? Something else? JOIN US 😀

This is a chance to discuss making and building languages in Racket.

We are going to have two meet-up sessions on Saturday 23 July to accommodate needs no of people in different timezones.

One at UTC 1800 and another at UTC 23:00

Both will be in the gather town Racket Room at

Best regards

Stephen
