The guile implementation of scheme provides a Turing complete
language enabling any computable problem to be solved.
In the community however there is a perception that scheme is not suited to
user interface applications.
This talk discusses why that perception exists, and aims to counter it
by presenting an example of graphical user interface application using
guile-ncurses which may be used to configure and install the GuixSD
operating system on a bare computer.
The structure of the program will be briefly presented, how it uses
the guile-ncurses library and issues which were encountered during
its development
