'''Racket''' is a [[General-purpose programming language|general-purpose]], [[multi-paradigm programming language]]. The Racket language is a modern dialect of [[Lisp (programming language)|Lisp]] and a descendant of [[Scheme (programming language)|Scheme]]. It is designed as a platform for [[programming language theory|programming language design]] and implementation.<ref name="manifesto">{{cite journal |last1=Felleisen |first1=M. |last2=Findler |first2=R.B. |last3=Flatt |first3=M. |last4=Krishnamurthi |first4=S. |last5=Barzilay |first5=E. |last6=McCarthy |first6=J. |last7=Tobin-Hochstadt |first7=S. |title=The Racket Manifesto |journal=Proceedings of the First Summit on Advances in Programming Languages |date=2015 |pages=113–128 |url=https://www2.ccs.neu.edu/racket/pubs/manifesto.pdf}}</ref> In addition to the core Racket language, ''Racket'' is also used to refer to the family of programming languages<ref>{{cite web |title=Dialects of Racket and Scheme |url=http://docs.racket-lang.org/guide/dialects.html |access-date=2011-08-15}}</ref> and set of tools supporting development on and with Racket.<ref>{{cite web |title=Welcome to Racket |url=http://docs.racket-lang.org/guide/intro.html|access-date=2019-05-15}}</ref> Racket is also used for [[script (computing)|scripting]], [[computer science]] education, and research.
The Racket platform provides an implementation of the Racket language (including a [[runtime system]],<ref name="mred"/> libraries, and [[compiler]] supporting several compilation modes: machine code, machine-independent, interpreted, and JIT) along with the DrRacket [[integrated development environment]] (IDE) written in Racket.<ref name="drscheme"/> Racket is used by the [[ProgramByDesign]] outreach program, which aims to turn [[computer science]] into "an indispensable part of the [[liberal arts]] [[curriculum]]".<ref name="teachscheme">{{cite news| last1=Felleisen |last2=Findler |last3=Flatt |last4=Krishnamurthi |year=2004 |url=http://www.ccs.neu.edu/scheme/pubs/#cse2003-fffk |title=The TeachScheme!

The core Racket language is known for its extensive [[macro (computer science)|macro]] system which enables creating embedded and [[___domain-specific language]]s, language constructs such as [[class (computer programming)|classes]] or [[modular programming|modules]], and separate dialects of Racket with different [[semantics of programming languages|semantics]].<ref name="scheme-with-classes">{{cite conference
