Here is a collection of the sites that I just have to share, as they have helped me a lot over my time of coding (I’ll add more as I find them
)
Perl Resources
Tek-Tips – These guys have been a lifeline while learning to code, and even now still when I find myself confused with something!
PerlMonks – Although the site can crawl a bit at times, the advice and help from the “gurus” there is invaluable, and well worth the waiting time to post your question / read a post. The “helpers” there vary from basic coders, all the way up to some of the best in the world. The advice is all free – so if you have any questions, just ask away! Please conform to posting etiquet though, as they are quite funny when you don’t
CPAN – The beauty of Perl, is that you can simply add “modules” to do a lot of the direty work for you – this can be as simple as grabbing a URL, or doing more advanced stuff like uising “SOAP” to send requests, or parsing XML files
Perl.org -The official website of perl, including “man” pages on how to do stuff & using the built in features of Perl
Design Resources
There are a ton of design related resources, but here are a few of my favourites:
DevShed – This site has hundreds, if not thousands of design and coding resources, as well as an active forum.
Photoshop Star – There are a ton of great resources here for learning how to use Photoshop.
