  • Well, I would agree with regards to PRE and POST. But ENTER / LEAVE are used a lot, and KEEP / UNDO most certainly as well by database oriented modules such as Red. There are 62 modules that use ENTER in the ecosystem, and 262 that use LEAVE. So definitely not obscure in Raku.

    I guess one of the reasons for LEAVE being used as much, is because Raku doesn't have timely destruction (whereas Perl does).

  • You're understanding correctly: there's still some wrinkles to work out before there is a bootstrapped RakuAST front-end in a release. 2025.05 won't have it.

  • In any case, on the language choice we are in agreement: as of now Raku is not a popular language, so requiring a user of the system to know the language cannot provide much appeal to the project.

    FWIW, for this application, I'd say only knowledge of "baby" Raku is needed. And if you've had any exposure to "baby" Perl in the past, then you already have that.

  • Well, this is your chance to make sure Comma will continue!

  • Yeah, it is what it is. 😒 However, there is good hope that some people will at least continue development on the plugin version.
