Welcome to the Perl Guilds Wiki
[edit | edit source]The Perl Guilds wiki is a community-driven resource designed to support freelance Perl programmers and help them thrive in their independent careers. The original wiki concept was inspired by FreePascal's community wiki.
This wiki is maintained by these people. You may thank them for this resource by hiring them for something.
Transforming Perl by Striving for Virtue
[edit | edit source]The infamous three "virtues" of a Perl programmer are not what you have been led to believe. They are bad, very bad. Please view this to learn more about the true virtues of Perl: Prudence, Spiritedness, and Good Order.
I hope to convey these ideals through this resource, and I hope you can help me.
