Rakudo Perl 6, or simply Rakudo, is a compiler for the Perl 6 programming
|
||
|
language. It runs on the Parrot virtual machine.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The Rakudo Star distribution (fondly called Rakudo *) is the Rakudo
|
||
|
compiler plus a selection of useful Perl 6 modules, the most recent
|
||
|
incarnation of the "Using Perl 6" book, and other software that can
|
||
|
be used with the Rakudo compiler to enhance its utility. Rakudo Star
|
||
|
is meant for early adopters who wish to explore what's possible with
|
||
|
Rakudo Perl 6 and provide feedback on what works, what doesn't, and
|
||
|
what else they would like to see included in the distribution.
