Last time I checked, Rails provides a lot of built-in functionality for building web apps.

But perhaps I got Rails confused with Ruby with my brief experience with it. I thought Rails provided the tools to auto-create your project structure in an MVC style.

If you use something like Catalyst of CGI::Application you get built in things like MVC project structure, auto populate a 'class' from a table entry, etc.

Basically, you get all those built-in functionality for building web apps that you would in Rails. But, I very briefly played with Rails, so I may have its definition confused.

I see. So CGI::Application (and Catalyst) is a built-in part of modern Perl. Interesting.
