Key differences between Raku and Scheme

CharacteristicRakuScheme
SyntaxRich, expressive, Perl-inspired with significant use of sigils, braces, and flexible constructs.Minimalist, Lisp-derived with heavy use of parentheses and prefix notation.
ParadigmMulti-paradigm: supports procedural, object-oriented, functional, concurrent, and reactive programming.Primarily functional, but also supports imperative and meta-programming paradigms.
TypingGradually typed with support for both dynamic and static typing.Dynamically typed.
PerformanceGenerally slower due to its rich feature set and relatively young ecosystem.Typically faster and lightweight, especially in optimized implementations.
Libraries and frameworksGrowing but limited ecosystem; fewer libraries and frameworks compared to more established languages.Limited standard libraries; some implementations provide additional libraries, but ecosystem is generally small.
Community and supportSmall but active and welcoming community; support mainly through forums, IRC, and documentation.Academic and niche community; support varies by implementation, with some active mailing lists and forums.
Learning curveSteep due to its expressive syntax and many features.Gentle for basics due to minimalism, but advanced topics (macros, continuations) can be challenging.
