✨ Dist::Z...Classic(3) ✨

okay bestie, you just opened Dist::Z...Classic(3) — the section 3 manual page for this whole vibe, kthx. sit down, grab a strawberry, and let's get into it 🍓💅

🌸 NAME 🌸

Dist::Zilla::PluginBundle::FakeClassic — the whole point of this thing is to build something more or less like a "classic" CPAN dist. like, it's giving old-school CPAN energy, no cap. faking it, but respectfully 👑

💖 VERSION 💖

version 6.040 🎀

🦋 PERL VERSION 🦋

okay so this module is a yes for literally any perl version that the Perl 5 Porters are still updating. fr fr. that means any perl from like the last two to three years. so, if the most recently released version is v5.40, then this module should work on both v5.40 and v5.38. iconic behavior honestly 🌈

now, does it maybe work on older perls? possibly! but do not come for me. no guarantee is made that the minimum required version will not be increased. it might be bumped up for any reason, and nobody has promised that patches to lower the minimum required perl will be accepted. so... yeah. big caveat, bestie 💀
