Its homepage is a live demonstration: the page's own Scheme source code is compiled to WebAssembly directly in the browser and mounted live. The hero section features a WebGL particle animation — dot-matrix glyphs that scatter and reassemble between the Latin 'GOETEIA' and the Greek 'Γοητεία' — driven by a vertex shader written as Scheme s-expressions. Visitors can edit the source, including the dot patterns, shader code, and colors, then press Run to re-render the page in real time. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
