I've been looking at light-weight scripting-language frameworks, any experience with Catalyst? I'm a fan of Perl.


Catalyst is a full blown MVC web framework. For light-weight (micro) web frameworks in Perl have a look at:

* Dancer (http://perldancer.org/)

* Mojolicious::Lite (http://mojolicio.us/)

* Squatting (http://p3rl.org/Squatting)

* Web::Simple (http://p3rl.org/Web::Simple)


Great, thanks for the suggestions


Thats OK.

PS. Here is a presentation doing a loose comparison between Dancer & Flask called "Dancer for Python programmers" (http://www.slideshare.net/xSawyer/perl-dancer-for-python-pro...)


Catalyst is not light weight. You would need to look at Dancer or Mojolicious for Perl equivalents.


No, sorry.
