I usually consider languages when I'm also choosing what to use it for. E.g. framework/language, or use-case/language such as Go for a small/low-level service. Other than that I'll look at curious languages/implementations that are not yet widely known/adopted (e.g. Pony, Crystal, CHICKEN Scheme) for its own sake but not for main usage. I would be interested in Perl6 if I had a use case for it. I don't write shell scripts that need more than bash and in those cases Python works for me. Anyone know any good Perl6 frameworks/libs (maybe for cli or ncurses)? |

Evan Miller felt Rakudo/MoarVM fit that niche. [1]
P6 automatically converts an ordinary P6 function call into a documented cli program. [2]
Cro, a distributed system framework, is a P6 showcase. [3]
