Raku brings modern concurrency techniques to every day scripts by making it easy to implement common tasks like timeouts, parallel execution, and event-driven actions initiated by watching the filesystem or observing data streams.
This will be an example-driven tour of practical ways to introduce concurrency to your scripts by using Raku's asynchronous capabilities for every day situations.
We will cover built-in language features like promises, supplies, channels, threads, atomic variables, reactive event loops, and asynchronous processes. We'll also touch on advanced concurrent techniques using modules from the Raku ecosystem.
