Yep, basically. I looked into Racketscript a while ago, seems like it was a graduate thesis project that heavily built off of a similar python project iirc. It's based on a very old version of rkt, pre-chez, and probably would need a huge investment just to work with the newer ecosystem.

Iirc, an interesting bullet-point in their backend rework to make the move to chez meant that doing things like targeting js might be easier now than ever. I would absolutely love a js backend for rkt, it seems like it would be a huge boon to the ecosystem.
