Big hairy yaks aimed at Any and is held in English. This talk starts on 2016-03-10 at 14:00 for 40 minutes. It takes place at the Booking.com.

This is a talk about how an experimental playground for exploring macros in Perl 6 turned into a small language of its own.

The talk will discuss the lessons of language design, bootstrapping, user-definable operators, unit testing, code coverage, yak shaving and, yes, macros.
