0.1
VERSION
This document describes version 0.1.12 of Acme::CPANModules (from Perl
distribution Acme-CPANModules), released on 2023-11-01.
DESCRIPTION
With the multitude of modules that are available on CPAN, it is
sometimes difficult for a user to choose an appropriate module for a
task or find other modules related in some ways to a module. Various
projects like CPAN Ratings <http://cpanratings.perl.org/> (where users
rate and review a distribution; now no longer accepting new submission)
or MetaCPAN <https://metacpan.org/> (which has a "++" feature where
logged-in users can press a button to "++" a module and the website will
tally the number of "++"'s a distribution has) help to some extent.
There are also various blog posts by Perl programmers which review
modules, e.g. CPAN Module Reviews by Neil Bowers
<http://neilb.org/reviews/>.
Acme::CPANModules is another mechanism to help, to let someone
categorize modules in whatever way she likes.
A related website/online service for "CPAN modules" is coming (when I
eventually get to it :-), or perhaps when I get some help).
CREATING AN ACME::CPANMODULES MODULE
The first step is to decide on the name of your module. It must be under
the "Acme::CPANModules::" namespace. For example, if you create a list
<https://github.com/perlancar/perl-Acme-CPANModules>.
SEE ALSO
"Acme::CPANModules::*" modules
cpanmodules from App::cpanmodules
Bencher
For categorizing CPAN authors, there are also the Acme::CPANAuthors
project, complete with its own website <http://acme.cpanauthors.org/>.
