I haven't checked for sure, but I suspect main.tt is only used when you
use the template keyword. You'll need something like:

get '/' => sub {
    template 'hello';
};

Where "hello" is another template called hello.tt

It appears to be looking for the template in your public/views directory

But your template is in MyApp/views. The latter is where I'd expect it
to be, so have you configured your templates to be in an alternative
location?
