Hi Ryan,

Speaking of the Guix Manual, abstraction is The Good Thing to do, IMHO
:-)

what about specific "Developing with your preferred language in Guix"
language subsections in The Coockbook, also available offline in
texinfo?

could you please propose patches for one of the languages you have
experience with?

I guess that similar subsections could also document the "state of the
art" (aka issues) with packaging libraries in that language (like rust,
for esemple)

> and package search

I guess searching specific language libraries isn't an issue, even if we
miss "Category" or "Language" in packages metadata, no?

[...]

Thanks! Gio'
