I used Bigloo years ago to build Scheme bindings to a few of our C applications and libraries. It's so much more fun to script your applications - similar to how your can/could script The Gimp with SIOD (Scheme in one Defun) Scheme.

Chicken Scheme

https://www.call-cc.org/

is another good one - compiles to binary, many libraries (eggs)

And can't compete in speed. But does have more libraries.

Try building a modern project in either. Anything non-trivial will highlight where Gerbil stands out.

I'd be happy to see some example non-trivial, new(ish) projects in any scheme, actually.

Hop looks like one such project, I don't know if gerbil would be better as an underpinning than Bigloo?
