💖 Task::Catalyst 💖

okay bestie, so this is Task::Catalyst — a Perl manual page, from the User Contributed Perl Documentation crew, and it's literally the starter pack. It's giving "everything you need to start with Catalyst" and honestly? It ate. 🎀

✨ VERSION ✨

version 4.02 — yeah, she's on 4.02, keep up. 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

Like, just do this:

perl -MCPAN -e 'install Task::Catalyst'

That's it. That's the whole vibe check. 🦋

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

This thing installs everything you need to write serious Catalyst applications. No cap. Fr fr. It's a Task module, so it doesn't do anything itself, it just drags a whole friend group of modules along with it so you're not out here installing them one by one like it's 2009. 🫶
