Project Summary
This is "Not Quite Perl" -- a lightweight Raku (Perl 6)-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, Rakudo) and is focused on being a high-level way to create compilers and libraries for virtual machines (such as MoarVM and the JVM). Unlike a full-fledged implementation of Perl 6, NQP strives to have as small a runtime footprint as it can, while still providing a Perl 6 object model and regular expression engine for the virtual machine.
