Perl at PayProp
by Lee Johnson (London.pm)
Perl at PayProp aimed at Any and is held in English. This talk starts on 2024-04-16 at 15:25 for 20 minutes. It takes place at the Room 1.
PayProp chose Perl over twenty years ago when they bootstrapped their business. Today the backend is still Perl, but has changed. This is a short talk about how we are modernising the stack and contributing back to open source software.
A short talk about some of the tools and techniques PayProp are using to modernise their Perl stack, including some of the issues and challenges. The areas covered will include:
* Moving from a CGI.pm based framework to Mojolicious
* Adding an ORM and business objects, via DBIx::Class and Moose
* Refactoring existing functionality with help from regression tests
* Contributing and maintaining distributions on CPAN
* Hiring developers and introducing them to Perl
