   Many graphics programming tutorials and videos out there but what I want to know is WHEN AND WHY we decided to do graphics programming that way and if I can even rewrite a full graphics programming toolchain myself and how.

   That's something I know how to do in CPU stuff, but GPUs are obscure, and I think it's on purpose. :(

     @ekaitz_zarraga first, install chicken.
     Second: install the devel libraries for MESA/epoxy and run chicken-install hypergyant as root.
     Next, to compile scheme code against opengl:
     csc -lGL -lepoxy file.scm
     -lepoxy is not needed but sometimes ld under Linux might fail.
     By installing hypergyant you already have the GL bindings for Scheme, this way you got covered if you only need to code against OpenGL and not the game engine.
     Have fun.

     To compile it:
     csc -L -lGL gl-life.scm

     @anthk the srfi's you are using here are not packaged in guix yet so I would need to use the chicken package manager which I won't.
     But I can read the code :)
     Thank you very much

     Allegedly, having the chicken srfi's and eggs on guix would be the best option, as integrating an scheme on Guix should be a piece of cake (you already have tons of experience with scheme/lisp dialects).
     There alreaday are some packaged.

     @anthk yeah I could package the ones that are missing. There are some already but not all.
     I think @csepp added chicken-build-system to guix so it should be a piece of cake to add.

     @ekaitz_zarraga @anthk There is also an egg importer.

     @csepp I used the importer and copied the definition and it says "ERROR: extension not cached" in the install step

     @csepp build. Maybe a dependency is missing.

     @ekaitz_zarraga Does that come from the importer or the build? It sounds like one of the eggs is not being installed correctly.
