Hi there!
Last week Mohammed wrote that he can't wait to test out perl 5.40. In response Michiel Beijen wrote a blog post explaining how you can already try 5.39.10, using plenv. I love this!
As you might know a while ago I stopped using mailman for the Perl Weekly and now both the subscription and unsubscription process is done by sending me an email that I read and process manually. This gives an excellent opportunity to the new subscribers to introduce themselves and even to mention the subjects that are interested in.
As the Perl Weekly is a news aggregator I am going to share some of the items in his mail hoping that some of you will write blog posts covering some of the issues.
After a long break from Perl, I'm looking for best current practice on building a website for a cycling club. So I'm curious about the full stack (for collaborative dev, integration, and public deployment) the architecture (MVC (Dancer2 or Mojolicious) & DB), and frameworks for Plack/PSGI, JavaScript, unit and acceptance testing, and OO, for example.
Also, what collaborative tools to use for Scrum/Kanban collaboration, and source control, CI and CD.
To start with, I am hunting around for best practice on a dev Webserver and client, and, later, a public web hosting server.
This was my response: To respond to your questions: I personally was using Dancer a lot, but Mojolicious seems to have slightly more development activity.
For CI I use either GitHub Actions or GitLab pipelines depending on which git hosting service the project uses.
I rent a server at Linode, but I have converted many of my sites to be static using some Static Site Generator and then I host them on GitHub pages.
I hope you'll have more detailed answer.
Actually, in this edition we have a post by Dave Cross on Deploying Dancer Apps already responding to part of the questions. This is how time-machine works.
Have a nice week!

RECAP - The Weekly Challenge - 269
Enjoy a quick recap of last week's contributions by Team PWC dealing with the "Bitwise OR" and "Distribute Elements" tasks in Perl and Raku. You will find plenty of solutions to keep you busy.
Distribute Or...
Raku never misses the opportunity to surprise me, Reduction Metaoperator with Binary OR [+|]. Raku Rocks !!
Two of Us Distributing Elements
Interactive discussion on every little things in details, likely to keep you engaged all the way. Thanks for sharing.
Bits and Bins
A complete re-structure of the original task and still managed to get the job done. This is truly exceptional.
Perl Weekly Challenge 269: Bitwise OR
Another cool dissection of the original task, it is always fun to read the post going into finer details. Keep it up great work.
Perl Weekly Challenge 269: Distribute Elements
Quick and simple implementation in both Perl and Raku. Enjoy the comparative analysis too.
Perl Weekly Challenge 269
Exceptional one-liner in Perl by our own master of one-liner. Keep it up great work.
at the last time I did!
One place where you get to enjoy the four different aspects through Raku, Python, Java and PostgreSQL. Well done and keep it up.
Bitwise Distribution
Well documented and with detailed narration to keep you busy. The bonus is Elixir on top. Thank you for everything.
Bits distribution
DIY Tool as always with engaging discussion. Highly recommended.
The Weekly Challenge #269
Classic one-liner in Perl, discussion makes it smooth ride. Thanks for sharing.
The Bitwise Elements
One-liner in Raku and Lua solution found space in the post too. My personal favourite is the PostScript, you really don't want to skip it.
Elements or something
Python solution is always lucky to get the limelight. I really enjoy the compact solution. Thanks for sharing.
