📝 NOTES 📝

Okay important one, bestie — MooseX::AttributeHelpers has been removed from this list, and not because it did anything wrong 😭 it's because its functionality has been subsumed into Moose itself. So it's not gone-gone, it's just inside the house now. See Moose::Meta::Attribute::Native for more details 💖

💀 BUGS 💀

All complex software has bugs lurking in it, and this module is no exception — not me being dramatic, it's literally in the source material 😭

If you find a bug please either email me, or add the bug to cpan-RT. Either way works, we're not picky, we just want the bug gone 🙈
