working on a PR add a bit of explanatory text to 'Racket, the Language-Oriented Programming Language' and trying to communicate the value of LOP. (https://github.com/spdegabrielle/racket-lang-org/tree/LOP )

Racket is a programming language for helping programmers create and quickly deploy new languages without resorting to external tools.

Still need to work out where a link to https://cacm.acm.org/research/a-programmable-programming-language/ can fit in this. (suggestions appreciated)

Does it look terrible? What should change?

I would cut "helping programmers" to make it concise.

We could also try something like this:

"Racket is a programming language for quickly creating and deploying problem-specific languages and for integrating problem-specific solutions into a working system."

I'm not satisfied with the 'See ..' link but I really want to include a link to this article.
