How to get started?
I've been going through the book myself using Haskell and it's been a blast. I recently completed Chapter 5 and here's some of what I learned to implement along the way: a CPS (Continuation-passing style) interpreter, how to add support for continuations, trampolining, how to use CPS to add support for exceptions and threads. Here are the various interpreters: https://github.com/dwayne/eopl3/tree/master/solutions/05-ch5/interpreters/haskell.

Experimenting with the new Typed Racket modes
Turns out, Shallow was slower than it needed to be for types of built-in math (+, *, ...). PR here: https://github.com/racket/typed-racket/pull/1316

Coalton: How to Have Our (Typed) Cake and (Safely) Eat It Too, in Common Lisp
Last weekend, I put together a working sample for how to show multiple syntax errors from Racket macros. It works in DrRacket and racket-xp-mode. It's based on Typed Racket.
https://gist.github.com/srcreigh/f341b2adaa0fe37c241fdf15f37...
The well-documented Racket `raise-syntax-error` will let you display 1 syntax error at a time. It works by throwing an exception during macro expansion hence you only get 1 error in your IDE. That code lets you highlight 2+ errors.
Please build a type system in Racket! I would love to try it out.
Helpfully, the above sample code is an example of how to store compiler-level state. So next, just wrap all your base forms, add some type declaration syntax, type inference, etc.
I would love to have a language that can be used to define a customized type system in Racket.
Typed Racket is an incredible feat. Can you imagine adding an entire type system without writing a separate compiler? Using all the batteries included with your language?
However I don't like that Typed Racket enforces soundness with Runtime checks, I much prefer TypeScript style checking. I also have run into some pretty confusing messages ie [1]. Diversity is healthy, it'd be nice to have static typechecking systems to choose from for Racket.

Creating Languages in Racket (2011)
> I like how TS is unsound (has no runtime performance penalty for mixing untyped code), and is easily disabled via any if it's in the way.
This is already done. See https://github.com/racket/typed-racket/pull/952 for RFC and https://github.com/racket/typed-racket/pull/948 for the implementation.
