Mojolicious is a mind-blowing framework, doubly so with Mojolicious::Plugin::OpenAPI. Unlike Catalyst, there's very few dependencies.

For a beginner, I'd recommend reading "Learning Perl" by Randal Schwartz first, then read a couple of the online Mojolicious tutorials/blogs.

Also, beginners should note that there's 2 framework approaches, Mojolicious::Lite (a wrapper) and the full Mojolicious, and mixing up the examples or documentation will confuse you.

Yep I'm tearing through "Learning Perl" and "Intermediate Perl" (aka the "llama book" and "alpaca book") while also trying to do some "practical" projects in Mojolicious (https://github.com/ctindall/hotseat is the closest to an actual releasable project, which also has a client in Racket (which I'm just trying to get into, though just for fun)) to apply what I'm learning.

I'd recommend "Modern Perl" as well. It's online as HTML or a free PDF, start here: http://modernperlbooks.com/books/modern_perl_2016/
