\section{Introduction}

\subsection{Motivation}

\begin{frame}[fragile]{Motivation}
\begin{block}<1->{Collecting (Lost) People}
\begin{itemize}
\item<1-> Perl 6 is in development for more than 10 years and it has a lot of
          impressive new features.
\item<2-> The language syntax evolved with the language capabilities and the
          evolved mindset.
\item<3-> Getting snippets of code from experienced Perl 6 developers might create
          more (new) questions than answers (if any).
\item<4-> This talk attempts to start at the beginning and collects everyone
          on the way.
\end{itemize}
\end{block}

\begin{block}<5->{Goals}
At the end of the talk, attendees should be able to write small Perl 6 code
and understand given examples.
\end{block}
\end{frame}

\subsection{Is \& Isn't}

\begin{frame}[fragile]{What Perl 6 Is}
\begin{block}<1->{Perl 6 Is \ldots}
\begin{itemize}
\item<1-> a modern language of the Perl family
\item<2-> a language with a fast growing module ecosystem
\item<3-> a development environment with built-in support for asynchronouos I/O,
          auto parallelization, multiple syntaxes in one program, \ldots
\item<4-> a name of a open minded, strong collaborating community
\end{itemize}
\end{block}
\end{frame}

\begin{frame}[fragile]{What Perl (6) Is not}
\begin{block}<1->{Perl 6 Isn't \ldots}
\begin{itemize}
\item<1-> Perl 4
\item<2-> Perl 5
\item<3-> intended to be a drop-in replacement of any of them
\item<4-> continuity of ''Status Quo''
\end{itemize}
\end{block}
\end{frame}

\begin{frame}[fragile]{What Rakudo Is}
\begin{block}<1->{Rakudo Is \ldots}
\begin{itemize}
\item<1-> a Perl 6 compiler (targeting Moar VM and JVM)
\item<2-> Perl 6 Specification conform
\item<3-> one of many Perl 6 implementations
\end{itemize}
\end{block}

\begin{block}<4->{Rakudo* Is \ldots}
\begin{itemize}
\item<4-> a bundle of the Perl 6 compiler and curated Perl 6 ''core'' modules
\item<5-> what you might call ''perl''
\end{itemize}
\end{block}
\end{frame}
