Key differences between Raku and Bash

CharacteristicRakuBash
SyntaxRich, expressive, and flexible syntax with support for multiple programming styles and advanced features.Simple, shell-oriented syntax primarily designed for command-line scripting and automation.
ParadigmMulti-paradigm: supports procedural, object-oriented, functional, and concurrent programming.Primarily procedural and imperative, focused on scripting and process control.
TypingDynamically typed with optional static typing and gradual typing features.Dynamically typed; all variables are treated as strings unless explicitly used otherwise.
PerformanceGenerally slower than many compiled languages due to its rich feature set and dynamic nature.Fast for simple scripts and command execution, but not optimized for complex computations.
Libraries and frameworksGrowing ecosystem with modules available via the Raku ecosystem (zef), but smaller than more established languages.Limited to built-in shell commands and external Unix utilities; lacks a formal library or framework system.
Community and supportActive but relatively small community; good documentation and some online resources.Large, mature community with extensive documentation, tutorials, and widespread use in Unix/Linux environments.
Learning curveSteep learning curve due to its expressive syntax and many advanced features.Gentle for basic scripting, but can become complex for advanced scripting and edge cases.
