This project is a good idea, and it's great to see blog posts. I
considered using it for myself, but as of now C bindings are
unfortunately not supported, so I still have to go with autoscan for
the bindings. When I finish stripping them out of the scheme code, I
will be sure to use hall for the interesting parts!

I really like the fact that I don't have to give up the automake
features. On that note, you may also want to consider adding a quick
line for "make distcheck", which makes sure that the distribution can
be built from source (detect missing files, out-of-tree build errors,
and a few other goodies)

Best regards

I did not know about it !

Thank you very much for the comment ! I will update my post to add the
distcheck step.

This is great! Not that I want extra publicity :-), would it be possible to
also mention Guile Homebrew Tap? You can now also use Hall on macOS.

I can mention it without more detail (as I know absolutely nothing
about macOS and homebrew) !
