Macros, hygienic or not

[aartaka]

Things like typecheck and define-api need to be macros instead of functions. Things like class+method definitions (that define-api depends on) and JSON destructuring (see njson:jbind) would benefit from macros too.

It's too early to make macros—the whole things is still a melting pot of ideas. But it'll definitely a future direction once all the unknowns are figured out.

Another reason to wait: Scheme has syntax-case, which is notoriously unintuitive. Using it would be terribly for maintainability. Guile has a more familiar defmacro, but I haven't yet researched it properly.
