Hi there,
The Perl community continues to move forward with exciting updates and
useful new tools. Recently, a new release of Dancer has
been announced. In his blog post (
https://blogs.perl.org/users/jason_a_crome/2026/03/dancer-210-released.html
), Jason A. Crome shared the release of Dancer
2.10, bringing improvements and fixes to the popular web
framework. Dancer has long been appreciated for making web development in
Perl simple and expressive, and this new version continues that tradition.
It is always encouraging to see mature Perl frameworks still actively
maintained and evolving with the needs of developers.
Another interesting project worth exploring is Prima (
https://www.reiniermaliepaard.nl/prima ), introduced by Reinier
Maliepaard. Prima is a powerful GUI toolkit for Perl, allowing
developers to build graphical desktop applications. Many Perl developers
are familiar with web or command-line tools, but Prima reminds us that Perl
can also be used effectively for desktop interfaces. The project
demonstrates how flexible the language can be when building different kinds
of applications.
The Perl Steering Council also published a new UPDATE: PSC (217) |
2026-03-09 (
https://blogs.perl.org/users/psc/2026/03/this-week-in-psc-217-2026-03-09.ht
ml ). These regular updates give a useful overview of what is happening
around the Perl core and governance. They help the community stay informed
about ongoing discussions, development priorities, and future plans.
Transparency like this is very valuable for an open source language, as it
helps everyone understand how decisions are made and where the project is
heading.
Finally, it is always nice to see new modules appearing in the CPAN
ecosystem. Recently I released a small module called DBIx::Class::MockData
( https://metacpan.org/dist/DBIx-Class-MockData ), which is designed to
help generate mock data when working with DBIx::Class in
tests. Creating realistic data for database tests can sometimes take extra
effort, so tools that simplify this process can be quite helpful. As
always, CPAN continues to grow thanks to contributions
from many developers in the Perl community.
Enjoy rest of the newsletter. Stay safe and healthy.

The Perl Steering Council shares a short summary of their latest meeting
and the topics currently on their radar. The meeting itself was brief,
but it still covered a few important administrative and planning items
related to the Perl core project. One of the main points discussed was
the ongoing outreach to potential new members of the Perl core team. The
council mentioned that they have contacted several people and are waiting
for responses before holding a vote. Expanding or refreshing the group of
contributors is an important step in keeping the Perl core development
active and sustainable.

Mastering Perl Prima: A Step-by-Step Guide for Beginners
https://www.reiniermaliepaard.nl/prima
=20
The article explains that Prima provides a rich set of widgets and tools
for creating graphical interfaces such as windows, buttons, and other
interactive elements. With relatively small pieces of code, developers
can create a working GUI application and run it through Prima's event
loop. This makes it possible to build desktop programs in Perl without
relying only on command-line interfaces or web frameworks.

https://dev.to/damil/beautiful-perl-feature-two-sided-constructs-in-list-=
or-in-scalar-context-4fhd
=20
In this article, Laurent Dami explores an interesting Perl concept:
two-sided constructs that behave differently depending on list or scalar
context. The post explains how certain Perl expressions can adapt their
behavior based on what the surrounding code expects, which is one of the
language's distinctive and powerful features.

Mail::Make
https://metacpan.org/pod/Mail::Make
=20
Mail::Make is a modern Perl module for building and sending MIME email
messages with a clean, fluent API. It allows developers to construct
messages step-by-step (adding headers, text, HTML, attachments, etc.)
while automatically generating the correct MIME structure for the email.
--------------

DBIx::Class::MockData
https://metacpan.org/dist/DBIx-Class-MockData
=20
The CPAN distribution DBIx-Class-MockData introduces a convenient way to
generate mock data for testing applications built with DBIx::Class. It
helps developers quickly populate schemas with realistic test records,
making it easier to write and maintain database tests. Tools like this
are particularly useful in projects using DBIx::Class, which maps
relational database tables to Perl objects and is widely used in Perl web
applications.

Hi there,
The Perl community continues to move forward with exciting updates and
useful new tools. Recently, a new release of Dancer has
been announced. In his blog post (
https://blogs.perl.org/users/jason_a_crome/2026/03/dancer-210-released.html
), Jason A. Crome shared the release of Dancer
2.10, bringing improvements and fixes to the popular web
framework. Dancer has long been appreciated for making web development in
Perl simple and expressive, and this new version continues that tradition.
It is always encouraging to see mature Perl frameworks still actively
maintained and evolving with the needs of developers.
Another interesting project worth exploring is Prima (
https://www.reiniermaliepaard.nl/prima ), introduced by Reinier
Maliepaard. Prima is a powerful GUI toolkit for Perl, allowing
developers to build graphical desktop applications. Many Perl developers
are familiar with web or command-line tools, but Prima reminds us that Perl
can also be used effectively for desktop interfaces. The project
demonstrates how flexible the language can be when building different kinds
of applications.
The Perl Steering Council also published a new UPDATE: PSC (217) |
2026-03-09 (
https://blogs.perl.org/users/psc/2026/03/this-week-in-psc-217-2026-03-09.ht
ml ). These regular updates give a useful overview of what is happening
around the Perl core and governance. They help the community stay informed
about ongoing discussions, development priorities, and future plans.
Transparency like this is very valuable for an open source language, as it
helps everyone understand how decisions are made and where the project is
heading.
Finally, it is always nice to see new modules appearing in the CPAN
ecosystem. Recently I released a small module called DBIx::Class::MockData
( https://metacpan.org/dist/DBIx-Class-MockData ), which is designed to
help generate mock data when working with DBIx::Class in
tests. Creating realistic data for database tests can sometimes take extra
effort, so tools that simplify this process can be quite helpful. As
always, CPAN continues to grow thanks to contributions
from many developers in the Perl community.
Enjoy rest of the newsletter. Stay safe and healthy.

The Perl Steering Council shares a short summary of their latest meeting
and the topics currently on their radar. The meeting itself was brief,
but it still covered a few important administrative and planning items
related to the Perl core project. One of the main points discussed was
the ongoing outreach to potential new members of the Perl core team. The
council mentioned that they have contacted several people and are waiting
for responses before holding a vote. Expanding or refreshing the group of
contributors is an important step in keeping the Perl core development
active and sustainable.

Mastering Perl Prima: A Step-by-Step Guide for Beginners
https://www.reiniermaliepaard.nl/prima

The article explains that Prima provides a rich set of widgets and tools
for creating graphical interfaces such as windows, buttons, and other
interactive elements. With relatively small pieces of code, developers
can create a working GUI application and run it through Prima's event
loop. This makes it possible to build desktop programs in Perl without
relying only on command-line interfaces or web frameworks.

In this article, Laurent Dami explores an interesting Perl concept:
two-sided constructs that behave differently depending on list or scalar
context. The post explains how certain Perl expressions can adapt their
behavior based on what the surrounding code expects, which is one of the
language's distinctive and powerful features.

by Reinier Maliepaard =
The article explains that Prima provides a rich set of wid=
gets and tools for creating graphical interfaces such as windows, buttons, =
and other interactive elements. With relatively small pieces of code, devel=
opers can create a working GUI application and run it through Prima's event=
loop. This makes it possible to build desktop programs in Perl without rel=
ying only on command-line interfaces or web frameworks.

The CPAN distribution DBIx-Class-MockData introduces a con=
venient way to generate mock data for testing applications built with DBIx:=
:Class. It helps developers quickly populate schemas with realistic test re=
cords, making it easier to write and maintain database tests. Tools like th=
is are particularly useful in projects using DBIx::Class, which maps relati=
onal database tables to Perl objects and is widely used in Perl web applica=
tions.
