This subtitle is about PET, a Perl application server and RAD environment for web programming. It is similar in many concepts to Tomcat for Java, Rails for Ruby or Zope for Python. There is also a resemblance with Apache::ASP or Catalyst.
PET uses the excellent TT2 as its templating engine, and is built upon a few gazillion CPAN modules. It can be run in different ways, but in production, it is usually run as a daemon, and must be coupled with a webserver that has FastCGI connectivity.
Currently PET only supports Linux. Please see some incomplete and outdated docs for more info.
I am going to include some actual trick and examples here, the purpose being to show what you can achieve using PET.
