Semmy Purewal gave a talk to my local linux users group with some nice demonstrations of node.js. I decided to try reimplementing some of them in perl. Some of the key Perl technologies are AnyEvent https://metacpan.org/module/AnyEvent::Intro - A framework for event-based programming PSGI http://plackperl.org/ - An interface between web applications and servers Plack http://plackperl.org/ - Low-level modules for using PSGI Twiggy https://metacpan.org/module/Twiggy - AnyEvent HTTP server for PSGI Mojolicious http://mojolicio.us/ - A web framework that comes both with its own AnyEvent-compatible server and PSGI compatibilty echo: DONE http: DONE httpplus: DONE twitter: DONE redis: DONE socket.io: TODO https://github.com/semmypurewal/node-talk-examples/
