"With modern Perl, code is usually clean and free of crazy syntax. With a OO architecture where the base classes do most of the work (such as auto authentication, auto encoding/decoding, auto DB joins, etc.) and you do business/game logic in the upper modules."
Ah, OK. That just sounds like Ruby, though, nothing special to Rails about that.
- revoltingx 16y agoLast time I checked, Rails provides a lot of built-in functionality for building web apps. But perhaps I got Rails confused with Ruby with my brief experience with it. I thought Rails provided the tools to auto-create your project structure in an MVC style. If you use something like Catalyst of CGI::Application you get built in things like MVC project structure, auto populate a 'class' from a table entry, etc. Basically, you get all those built-in functionality for building web apps that you would in Rails. But, I very briefly played with Rails, so I may have its definition confused.
- jamesbritt 16y agoI see. So CGI::Application (and Catalyst) is a built-in part of modern Perl. Interesting.
