Introduction to Mojolicious

Mojolicious bills itself as "A next generation web framework". What does that mean?

Unlike many CPAN modules, Mojolicious comes with "batteries included." This includes a DOM parser, JSON parser/writer, a full web stack, a user agent, a testing library, several server implementations and even handles websockets (real-time webapps) out of the box! All of it is incredibly well tested and installs in under a minute (for most hardware) with no non-core dependencies.

Oh yeah and its all non-blocking (when you want that).

I will of course show some of the common functionality expected of a modern web framework, but in this demonstration I would like to show how these additional tools can help build useful and well tested web applications quickly.
