By low level , is it that it is not an efficient way to traverse directory structures ?

low level in the sense that its a waste of programmer time common waste of noob time. Path::Tiny uses readdir so that you don't have to. File::Find::Rule uses readdir so that you don't have to. Its convenience, why spend 15min-2hours to reinvent Path::Tiny/File::Find::Rule each time you have a problem?

File::Find::Rules is like cake (sweet), where File::Find is like raw flour, opendir/readdir is like wheatberries/otas/groats/whole wheet you have to grind into flour before you can bake your cake

was just reading up about Path::Tiny on CPAN. It says it does not try to work in non-Windows and non-linux mode.

And is that a concern for you? :) Today? :) Usage share of operating systems

also i see it has quite a few dependencies and wondering if it was pure perl or not, which might be a deciding factor for me ? I ran the following command to check the above ... which gave me the output

And what does that output tell you? :)

Path::Tiny -> http://deps.cpantesters.org/?module=Path%3A%3ATiny;perl=latest
