This looks great. Why have you priced the app at $2.99 I have been using Lumosity and they charge $79.99 per year across their website and app and they have very limited games on their app.
Thank you restofus,
But as I had mentioned in the question above, I am already aware of the course and I'm going to take it. I'm just looking for more resources meanwhile to work on.
The good thing about perl 6 is that lots of ideas from there are getting back into perl 5 and believe it or not Haskell got a bit of a boost because of perl 6 (when the pugs project was in full swing).
Even if one of the projects implements the full perl 6 spec that exists today, there are very few perl 5 devs that will switch over ,If I were asked to guess it would be less than 5 %. Perl 6 as a language has to start at the bottom with other programming languages . The name perl6 was used because one of the reason (I am not sure of this) was to retain the name to get perl5 devs to move to the next version of the language and at that time perl5 was a dominant language.
Another perspective to look at is that perl6 was announced in early 2000 clojure came around 2007 , scala appeared around 2003. There are other languages like go and dart which have google backing that have come out.
So IMHO if you want to learn language design and the other things around it perl6 is a good playground you will learn and easy to get into the community but you will not get a job because of it. If you are a user of programming language who wants to use a language for solving a real world problem today (with libraries and get questions answered) or learn a language which will get you a job you will be better off with perl5 , php, ruby, python, scala, clojure or <insert your lang>
"real world" means different things for different people.
At this point how many companies do you know of that use perl6 to solve their business problem (may be as simple as a web app) ?. Has there been any job posting anywhere which are looking for perl6 devs?
That said, there's two of us in the company I work for: http://www.edument.se/english/ . I got hired mostly on my merits as a Perl 6 core contributor. We're eager to hire more Perl 6 programmers.
