> why anyone would migrate to Perl 6 from Perl5.
In addition to the previous, some perl5-to-6-specific improvements:
consistent handling of $_ means not having to look up "what (if
anything) does this builtin do with a default?"
NativeCall is quite simpler than XS

Hi,
is there a minimal tool set (best written in P6), that
can load the necessary rest from the internet to have a complete
Perl6 installation ?
Greetings

Correct -- there are some excellent REPLs for perl5 such as Devel::REPL and
tinyrepl.
The advantage for Perl 6 will be (but is not yet) it's multi-threaded
friendliness. I am slowly working on the tools to build something like
clojure's nREPL -- a client/server repl where your console, editor, and
'rakudobrew' and panda, maybe?

I think perl6 isn't self bootstrapping, yet. Unless I've gotten myself
confused, some of the environment sniffing and basic build automation is in
perl5, and the foundation is in C. Also wants make.
Bennet is correct.
If you're buildilng from source, you'll need perl5 and make (and git
if you don't have a tarball to work from)
If you're using MoarVM backend, you'll need a C compiler, and javac
for the JVM backend.
Note that Perl 6 is implemented mostly in Perl 6 and NQP (Not Quite
Perl 6),
Could I interest you in focusing your time on the project arnsholt and
me started long ago to make a Jupyter/IPython compatible kernel?
