• Mojo may be the biggest programming language advance in decades

  I guess this will make it harder to search for Mojo(licious)-related stuff. 😩. Source: 12 months ago

• Choose boring tools

  Several! The 3 big players in order of release are Catalyst, (released in 2005), Dancer2 (Dancer was first released in 2009, but went through a complete re-write as Dancer2 around 2013), and Mojolicious (released in 2010). Source: about 1 year ago

• Guidance on Building a Web Application in Perl

  This project sounds to me like the perfect excuse to learn Mojolicious if you're interested in converting your scripts into a web application using Perl. Source: about 1 year ago

• i3mojo -- an i3status replacement in Perl

  Awesome! I still use Perl on a pretty regular basis both for work and fun. I really enjoy it. Definitely take a look at Mojolicious if you haven't already. It's primarily focused on being a web framework (both server and client), but it's nicely modular so you can use bits and pieces of the stack. In i3mojo, I used the Mojo::IOLoop event loop, Mojo::Base as a base class system, and Mojo::UserAgent as a web... Source: about 1 year ago

• Mojo.js is a port of Perl's Mojolicious to TypeScript

  The Mojolicious homepage https://mojolicious.org actually looks almost like the Mojo.js homepage (or the other way round). So much that I first suspected some kind of parody until I realized they were indeed the same people. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• Humble Tech Book Bundle: Full Stack Web Development by Springer/Apress (€17.68 for 25 items)

  I still write new stuff in Perl all the time. As for web development, Mojolicious exists and is constantly updated (though I don't think that book covers it). Source: over 1 year ago

• Preferred Programming Languages for Web Scraping

  I'm a bit biased, but I like Perl's Mojolicious. It's not that's it's Perl so much as the particular organization of its framework that makes it really easy to see what's going on (where Python's requests, for example, isn't so forthcoming). BeautifulSoup is nice, but I really like that Mojolicious has CSS4 selectors (including some of the experimental things). Since Mojolicious provides the complete environment,...

• mojo.js 1.0 - from Perl to Node.js

  The Mojolicious project is a group of polyglot programmers who started out with Perl back in the hay days of CGI scripting. Some of us have been making mainstream web frameworks for two decades now. From Catalyst in 2004 to Mojolicious in 2010. Powering some of the largest sites on the web along the way. - Source: dev.to / almost 2 years ago

• What is the difference between FastCGI and CGI::Fast and are either good to use for modern web development? If not, what is common to use to develop websites and web apps with Perl?

  Using CGI as a web development framework is not recommended. It is difficult to write secure apps with it. In most cases, Mojolicious is a better starting point, though there are other Perl web frameworks such as Dancer2 or Catalyst as well. Source: about 2 years ago

• A New Type of Mojolicious Frontend

  JavaScript has evolved quite a bit from its humble beginnings. Unfortunately, some of those advances have been difficult to take advantage of. Some require features not supported by all browsers, others require complicated tools. For my latest Mojolicious web app, I wanted to see how I could use Typescript with a minimum of fuss. - Source: dev.to / over 2 years ago

• Yancy: What We Leave Behind

  When I started the Yancy Content Management System, my goal was to see how easy it would be to build a generic admin editor on top of a Mojolicious application database. Its design was, therefore, simple: A backend layer to talk to the database, a web application to view and edit the data, and an API controller to connect the two. - Source: dev.to / over 2 years ago

• Some thoughts on Perl template processing

  Stop. Just stop. Decades of others who have walked this same path have already done this for you. Especially if you’re using a web framework like Dancer, Mojolicious, or Catalyst, where the template processor is either built-in or pluggable from CPAN. Even if you’re not developing a web application there are several general-purpose options of various capabilities like Template Toolkit and Template::Mustache.... - Source: dev.to / over 2 years ago
