The road to Perl 6

 

Learning Resources

For a long time, there was a huge problem: no real learning resources...

So here's a list of curated resources!

LearnPerl6InYMinutes

A little bit of self-promotion here...

You don't even need to know Perl 5...

(but it certainly helps)

Perl6AdventCalendar

One of the oldest, but still probably the best

source of examples of Perl 6 features

Not many code examples from 2010 and earlier,
because the compilers weren't as advanced then.

Perl 5 to Perl 6

If you speak Perl 5, this will
feel the closest to home.

RosettaCode

Lots and lots of examples...

... But not as much explanations.

The Synopses

 

You don't want to read all of these...

... But if you want to know the juicy details,

this is where you should be headed.

S02=syntax basics, S03=operators,

S05=regexps, S06=subroutines, ...
