Acme::CPANModules::PERLANCAR::Avoided - List of modules I'm currently avoiding

=head1 VERSION

This document describes version 0.014 of Acme::CPANModules::PERLANCAR::Avoided (from Perl distribution Acme-CPANModulesBundle-PERLANCAR), released on 2023-11-01.

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This is a list of modules I'm currently avoiding to use in my code, for some
reason. Most of the modules wered used in my code in the past.

Using a L<Dist::Zilla> plugin
L<Dist::Zilla::Plugin::Acme::CPANModules::Blacklist>, you can make sure that
during building, your distribution does not specify a prerequisite to any of the
modules listed here. (You should make your own blacklist though).

=item L<Log::Any>

Startup overhead.

Author: L<PREACTION|https://metacpan.org/author/PREACTION>

After the 1.x version, I no longer prefer L<Log::Any> and have developed an
alternative called L<Log::ger>.


Alternate modules: L<Log::ger>

=item L<List::MoreUtils>

License confusion.

=head1 FAQ

=head2 What is an Acme::CPANModules::* module?

An Acme::CPANModules::* module, like this module, contains just a list of module
names that share a common characteristics. It is a way to categorize modules and
document CPAN. See L<Acme::CPANModules> for more details.

=head2 What are ways to use this Acme::CPANModules module?

Aside from reading this Acme::CPANModules module's POD documentation, you can
install all the listed modules (entries) using L<cpanm-cpanmodules> script (from
L<App::cpanm::cpanmodules> distribution):

 % cpanm-cpanmodules -n PERLANCAR::Avoided

Alternatively you can use the L<cpanmodules> CLI (from L<App::cpanmodules>
distribution):

    % cpanmodules ls-entries PERLANCAR::Avoided | cpanm -n

or L<Acme::CM::Get>:

    % perl -MAcme::CM::Get=PERLANCAR::Avoided -E'say $_->{module} for @{ $LIST->{entries} }' | cpanm -n

or directly:

    % perl -MAcme::CPANModules::PERLANCAR::Avoided -E'say $_->{module} for @{ $Acme::CPANModules::PERLANCAR::Avoided::LIST->{entries} }' | cpanm -n

This Acme::CPANModules module also helps L<lcpan> produce a more meaningful
result for C<lcpan related-mods> command when it comes to finding related
modules for the modules listed in this Acme::CPANModules module.
See L<App::lcpan::Cmd::related_mods> for more details on how "related modules"
are found.
