Rackethas a lot of tools for implementing new programming languages.
Process
In general, there are two steps to implement a new language in Racket: you must first implement a reader and then an expander.
Reader
The reader is like a parser. It takes text and converts it into s-expressions
Expander
The expander is what either generates Racket code or otherwise how the s-expressions from the reader correspond to Racket code.
