Key differences between Delphi and Raku
| Characteristic | Delphi | Raku |
|---|---|---|
| Syntax | Pascal-based, verbose, uses begin/end blocks, case-insensitive. | Perl-inspired, flexible, supports multiple syntactic forms, case-sensitive. |
| Paradigm | Primarily object-oriented, supports procedural programming. | Multi-paradigm: object-oriented, functional, procedural, concurrent. |
| Typing | Statically typed, strong typing with some type inference. | Dynamically typed by default, supports gradual and strong typing. |
| Performance | Compiled to native code, generally high performance for desktop applications. | Interpreted or JIT-compiled, generally slower than Delphi. |
| Libraries and frameworks | Rich set of GUI and database libraries, strong support for Windows development. | Growing ecosystem, fewer libraries, strong text processing and concurrency features. |
| Community and support | Established, commercial support, active user forums, legacy codebase. | Smaller, enthusiastic open-source community, active development, less commercial support. |
| Learning curve | Gentle for those familiar with Pascal, straightforward for GUI development. | Steep due to flexible syntax and advanced features, but beginner-friendly documentation. |
