This is my first time hearing about Raku (the language this tool is apparently written in), and after a quick look at the website[1], I am not sure why I would want to use Raku vs any other language in particular.

According to the guide[2]:

> Raku is a high-level, general-purpose, gradually typed language. Raku is multi-paradigmatic. It supports Procedural, Object Oriented, and Functional programming.

That really doesn't tell me enough. Anyone else have any idea why I might want to use Raku vs one of the many other langs to which those adjectives can be applied?
