in reply to Mojolicious::Lite: Should i use the build-in web server?

Answer: Set up a test server somewhere in your environment and try it.

Over the years I've gotten questions like this mainly from business types so it is surprising to hear it from a developer. How do you know what a Toyota SUV is better than one from Hyundai? Test drive and and scout for performance data.

Set up a list of requirements and cross out everything that the tool does and highlight anything that it does not (sometimes called a gap analysis). Evaluate how difficult it will be to add the things that it lacks. Try again with different toolkits. When you run into a more specific problem, post here again.

    InfiniteSilence,

    Normally I would agree with your response, but occasionally asking for the wisdom of someone who has done this(or that) before, can save hours/days/weeks/months of frustration. I have many times spend large amounts of time to then give up on that *solution*.

    Now on the other hand, driving a new SUV sounds like having some fun and I would definitely go for that solution.

    "How do you know what a Toyota SUV is better than one from Hyundai?..."

    I don't know. But before i test drive one, i would ask my friends.

    Even when i buy an expensive bottle of wine i first ask a fellow: "Did you try this stuff? Do you think it's worth the money? And did you like it? Or got you heartburn from it?"

    Sorry for that old school approach but i consider this as good practice.

    BTW, i really hate SUVs ;-)

    Thank you very much for answering and best regards, Karl
