Who this book is for The primary audience for this book is existing Perl programmers who want more information on writing robust maintainable and extendable web applications. This group is comprised of four subgroups:
Experienced perl programmers wanting to update their web programming skills (for example, CGI.pm, mod_perl, and Mason programmers) Intermediate/Late beginner programmers wanting to learn rapid, extendable, maintainable web programming techniques in Perl System administrators and other non–web users of Perl (e.g., bioinformatics workers) who want to learn modern Perl web development techniques Existing catalyst programmers who want to learn about best practices for catalyst development
This book is also for programmers who want to understand web application design and development more thoroughly.
