Getting Into Perl 6

You may have heard that Perl 6 is making its debut this Christmas; This is the perfect time to get involved and help the team get through the last mile. Rob Hoelz will walk through making a change to the Rakudo compiler, which will make it easier to make your own changes and help out! A brief rundown of the evening:

  • A quick intro to Perl 6 for newbies
  • A brief overview of the Perl 6 ecosystem
  • A tour of the Rakudo compiler's source
  • Going through the compiler and making the change
