okay so this is the page for Module::Compile::Opt, and honestly? it's a whole vibe. it's the little glue module that lets you hand options over to Module::Compile at runtime. tiny page, big impact. let's get into it 🦋

✨ NAME ✨

Module::Compile::Opt — Provide options to Module::Compile

that's it. that's the name. no cap, it does exactly what it says on the tin 💅

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

here's the group chat screenshot of how you'd actually use it:

> export PERL5OPT=-MModule::Compile::Opt=-ext,p,pm
> perl -c lib/Foo.p
> cat lib/Foo.pm

yes bestie, you really do just yeet it into PERL5OPT like that. 🫶

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

module::Compile::Opt — lowercase m, iconic of it — lets you pass runtime options to Module::Compile. it's giving backstage pass energy. 🎟️

and the tea ☕ about the default: by default, Module::Compile takes a module living in a .pm file and compiles it into a .pmc file. that's the standard behavior, that's the baseline, that's the vibe check passed.
