Key differences between Grain and Perl
| Characteristic | Grain | Perl |
|---|---|---|
| Syntax | Syntax is inspired by ML-family languages (like Elm and ReasonML), featuring significant whitespace and type annotations. | Syntax is flexible, uses sigils for variables, and is known for its 'There's more than one way to do it' philosophy. |
| Paradigm | Functional-first, with strong emphasis on immutability and pure functions. | Multi-paradigm, supporting procedural, object-oriented, and some functional programming. |
| Typing | Statically typed with type inference. | Dynamically typed. |
| Performance | Compiles to WebAssembly, offering high performance for web applications. | Interpreted language, generally slower than compiled languages but fast enough for many scripting tasks. |
| Libraries and frameworks | Limited ecosystem, as it is a newer language; fewer libraries and frameworks available. | Extensive library support via CPAN, with thousands of modules for various tasks. |
| Community and support | Small and growing community, limited resources and support. | Large, established community with decades of resources, forums, and documentation. |
| Learning curve | Moderate to steep, especially for those unfamiliar with functional programming or ML-style syntax. | Can be steep due to flexible syntax and multiple ways to accomplish tasks, but lots of learning resources are available. |
