Useful resources for the Perl 6 programming language

⚠️ Perl 6 will be renamed to Raku (see here). Hence, this repository has been replaced by awesome-raku. ⚠️

Perl 6, also called Raku, is a multi-paradigm language with exceptional string-processing support. It is not a new version of Perl 5. Instead, it is regarded as a new member of the Perl family breaking compatibility with its older sister language. Among many improvements, the string-processing capabilities of Perl 6 were brought to a higher level by adding so-called grammars to the language.
