💖 Dist::Z...ecFiles(3) 💖

okay bestie, gather round, because we're reading the User Contributed Perl Documentation for Dist::Zilla::Role::ExecFiles and honestly? it's short but it matters. this is the role that goes and finds the files you wanna ship as executables. that's the whole vibe. it's giving "scout, but make it a Perl role." 🕵️♀️✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

Dist::Zilla::Role::ExecFiles — literally just: something that finds files to install as executables. no cap, that's the description. short. sweet. iconic. 💅

🎀 VERSION 🎀

version 6.040 — that's the one, that's the era we're living in. 👑

🦋 PERL VERSION 🦋

okay so here's the tea on which perls this works with: this module should work on any version of perl still receiving updates from the Perl 5 Porters. and what does that mean in practice? it means any version of perl released in the last two to three years. 🌈

like, if the most recently released version is v5.40, then this module should work on both v5.40 and v5.38. both of them! together! slay. 🫶

⚠️ bestie, read this part: although it may work on older versions of perl, there is no guarantee made that the minimum required version will not be increased. the version may be increased for any reason, and there is no promise that patches will be accepted to lower the minimum required perl. so if you're out here on some ancient perl thinking "she'll be right"… the vibes are not guaranteed. 😭

signed, sealed, and shipped — perl v5.42.3, dated 2026-10-19, straight from the Dist::Z...ecFiles(3) corner of the docs. bye babe, hydrate, and remember: even the tiny roles deserve main character energy ✨🦋
