Why Go? Use Racket

I like crosscompilation and being able to deploy a stand alone executable without the whole sdk needed.Does racket do that?

I may have missed in those docs any mention of cross-compilation. The first result for 'cross compile racket' is [1]. Of course that's from 2013, so maybe it changed since then.

You're right – I keyed in on "stand-alone executable" and not the "crosscompilation" part of the question.
