I present a collection of lessons-learned from two years of implementing production software in Moose. I provide simplified code samples of implementation approaches we took and evaluate the success of each. My talk assumes practical knowledge of Moose, including but not limited to roles, method modifiers, coercion, and MOP. It also assumes intermediate knowledge of software engineering concepts such as design patterns, object hierarchies, composition, and delegation. Attendees should have a casual understanding of agile scrum, continuous integration, and test-driven development.
