I'm deliberately trying to avoid a language flame war. Rather, I'm evaluating based on the size and maturity of the User Experience/UI section of the Perl community. Dancer seems well placed for API servers, but the web dev communities seem to be focused around Ruby, Python, Node etc. which is making me lean toward option (2) above. Is that a reasonable evaluation?
Don't conflate front-end and back-end technologies. Dancer will make writing the back-end parts trivially easy; and make it easy to do the front-end however you like (simple and easy templating support, etc). Your choice of back-end framework needn't have much to do with how you develop the front end. -- David Precious ("bigpresh") <davidp@preshweb.co.uk> http://www.preshweb.co.uk/ www.preshweb.co.uk/twitter www.preshweb.co.uk/linkedin www.preshweb.co.uk/facebook www.preshweb.co.uk/cpan www.preshweb.co.uk/github
