Not Quite Perl
Project homepage: https://github.com/Raku/nqp
Description
This is "Not Quite Perl" -- a lightweight Raku-like environment
for virtual machines. The key feature of NQP is that it's designed
to be a very small environment (as compared with, say, raku or
Rakudo) and is focused on being a high-level way to create compilers
and libraries for virtual machines (such as the Parrot Virtual
Machine, the JVM, and MoarVM). Unlike a full-fledged implementation
of Raku, NQP strives to have as small a runtime footprint as it
can, while still providing a Raku object model and regular
expression engine for the virtual machine.
