What is Moo in Perl?

Moo is a lightweight object system for Perl that provides a simple and efficient way to create and manage classes. It allows developers to quickly define attributes and methods without the overhead of more complex object-oriented systems. Moo is designed to be compatible with Moose, which is a more feature-rich object system.

Example of Using Moo


        package MyClass;
        use Moo;

        has 'name' => (
            is  => 'rw', # Read/write attribute
        );

        has 'age' => (
            is  => 'ro', # Read-only attribute
        );

        sub greet {
            my $self = shift;
            return "Hello, my name is " . $self->name;
        }

        # Usage
        my $object = MyClass->new(name => 'Alice', age => 30);
        print $object->greet(); # Output: Hello, my name is Alice
