• Awesome Things You've Missed In Perl

  by Paul Fenwick

  Awesome things have been happening in Perl recently; so many that even if
  you've been paying close attention, you may have missed a few. In this talk
  we'll examine some of the coolest recent technologies for Perl programmers,
  including:

  • Overhauling Perl's Object Oriented framework with Moose.

  • Making everything a first-class object with autobox.

  • Slashing your error handling code with autodie.

  • Building fast, readable and reusable regular expressions with Perl 5.10.

  • Bundling and building stand-alone applications using PAR, the Perl Archiver.

  • Astonishingly good profiling with Devel::NYTProf.

  • Playing MineSweeper automatically with App::SweeperBot.
