Migrating Perl to Raku
In January 2018, I proposed a CPAN Butterfly Plan to convert Perl functionality to Raku as closely as possible to the original API. I stated this as a goal because Perl (as a programming language) is so much more than syntax alone. Ask anyone what Perl's unique selling point is, and they will most likely tell you it is CPAN.

The most interesting Open Source web applications
MetaCPAN. There are a number of project in the Perl community. This is one of the most interesting ones. source code

Perl has numerous modules for practically everything. Try a search on https://metacpan.org for anything that takes your fancy.

New to Perl and have a few questions
I can point to the module library metacpan.org that has modules to do tons of different things -- I don't know what equivalent resouorce Python has.

5 great Perl scripts to keep in your sysadmin toolbox
All language package index websites are a poor imitation of metacpan.org. Without a doubt it is the single best package website I have used for finding packages, reading docs, examples, version changes, source repo. Everybody should be shamelessly copying it.

Day 5: CI for Win32-Wlan Perl module
While the indicates that this is a Windows-related thing, there are a number of packages on CPAN that are in the Win32 namespace, but also work on Linux. This one, it seems does not. It seems at least one of its dependencies, the Win32-API does not work on anything else besides Windows.

Use Dist::Zilla to Create a Perl Distribution
A Perl distribution is an archive of files that includes a Perl module. There are no official rules on what non-module files must be included in a distribution, but they often include (among other things) test scripts, a Makefile.PL, documentation, and the license. These distributions are commonly uploaded to CPAN, which is a place for Perl programmers to upload their Perl distributions for the purpose of sharing their code.

Need help for debugging with Devel:Camelcadedb
If there are modules being used, you can read their documentation using the perldoc command or looking online at https://metacpan.org
- metacpan unusable for anyone else?

The way Pause doesn't index files.
Pause is the site to upload Perl distributions to CPAN.

What should the Perl community do about the MST problem?
Additionally terminating their PAUSE administrator-ship, under the last point of the PAUSE admin code of conduct is very long overdue.

Avoid CPAN conflicts in your personal Perl modules

A Guide to Versions in Perl
Rather than using underscores in your versions, there are other mechanisms to indicate a development or trial release of a distribution that don't involve module versions. If the archive file uploaded to CPAN has a name ending in -TRIAL (before the file extensions), PAUSE will not index it as a stable release. Additionally, you can set the release_status metadata field in meta-spec 2; a value of "testing" or "unstable" will indicate that the release should not be indexed. The method of setting this depends on your authoring tool. At the time of writing, either of these methods is sufficient to prevent PAUSE from indexing the distribution, and both are performed automatically by the "--trial" option when releasing using Dist::Zilla or Minilla.
