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.
