My experience with Mojo, Dancer, and non-Perl systems is that the demos work great, but scaling from that to a production system is a challenge ( my experience with web sites was primarily in 1999; They HAD been using cgi.pl, I introduced CGI.pm, HTML::Template ). How do you use Mojo to create dynamic AJAX-y pages? A client I've dealt with has a web site that is a lengthy mess of print statements running under Apache. The page has a number of sections that reflect various aspects of the system being represented. How can I convert these components one by one to Mojo?

Mojo is actually quite similar to > Dancer (or now Dancer2), which has been around for a couple of years. As a Web developer employed at a Windows shop I haven't had a lot of time to experience Perl Web development. I've briefly looked at Catalyst and Dancer, but I haven't gone anywhere near far enough to be comfortable with them (if I were my Web site would be running on it already). I don't often find the time to spectate the TPM talks, though I greatly appreciate the invitations. If I do find the time I for one wouldn't mind any kind of basic talk on the subject. > I've been contemplating a project where I implement Twitter as a Mojo > application -- it's a large, ridiculously complicated project, but if I > start with just the basic schema and work up from that to a web frontend it > could be interesting. > > Suggestions? Please shout them out. Perhaps not relevant at all, but if you weren't aware there is a GNU project called "social" that seems to be a free software replacement for Twitter functionality. I don't use Twitter because I don't trust them so I don't really know what it's all about, but I digress. If writing a clone in Perl is a learning exercise or a Perl substitute then that wouldn't be very useful, but if you were simply trying to create a free software alternative it supposedly already exists... :) Albeit, I haven't figured out how to use it short of installing it on my own server, and I haven't found the time to try that either..

Based on the response to my call for presentations, I'd say that we don't have a lot of Mojo users in our midst. Also, we were going to team up with another user group for this meeting, which will have a lot folks who are new to Perl. I think a "getting started" presentation is actually what we are looking for here. > Mojo is actually quite similar to Dancer (or now Dancer2), which has been around for a couple of years. In some ways, but the routing is different and certainly the philosophy behind dependencies is quite different. Since a lot of wheels go reinvented, it's good to be aware of some of the differences. > > I've been contemplating a project where I implement Twitter as a Mojo application -- it's a large, ridiculously complicated project, but if I start with just the basic schema and work up from that to a web frontend it could be interesting. I'd be very interested in seeing something like this. How long would you like to speak for?

It's really just a technology exercise to allow me to get more comfortable with Mojo, and get back into shape with DBIx::Class. If I can sprinkle in some AJAX, all the better.

I'm not a Mojo user simply because I know nothing about it, and haven't had the motivation to learn it yet.
