Mojoconf 2014 - Wiki - guided tutorial

See the original idea :
"The more I'm using mojolicious and the more I think we need another tutorial, not to replace the official one which is really good but an additional one that would go step by step to build a typical real-time application.

Something more like what sensio labs did with symfony 1.4 or the angularjs one

A true step by step tuto that would be maintained with the latest version of mojolicious and available for download from github for example. Something a complete newbie could start with quickly to grab the power of mojolicious for real time web app. I'm thinking about something like an online chat or like mojomber https://github.com/vti/mojomber. I would be glad to start something like that and have plenty of ideas. But I'd need some help to make sure I apply the best practice as I'm still pretty new to Perl and as well to implement a pub/sub message bus for app workers to communicate which I failed to implement so far."

So I think this hackathon is a good opportunity to start this tutorial project.

I had the opportunity to talk to some of you guys yesterday at the mojoconf and I realised I was not the only that think this tutorial is needed.

So anyone who wants to help on this is very welcome.

Some details about the project:

I think we can split this project in two parts:
* writing the demo application: write that app using git to document every step as branch that can be used to switch quickly between steps.
* writing a plain english explanation of what we are doing for every step of the implementation. The Markdown format could be a good option for that.

As tempire said it has to be pretty because people like pretty things.

Nils Diewald (‎Akron‎) would like to add stuff based on a tutorial-style presentation given at the German Perl Workshop 2014 covering entrypoints for plugins.

A live environment for all tests - probably based on liveperl.us liveperl.us would be nice (liveperl.us seems to be down at the moment though)
