perlcpanperl-modulepopularity

Is there anywhere I can find information on the relative popularity of Perl modules?


One of the problems of using CPAN is that "there's more than one module to do it". I often wonder what everyone else is using.

Is there any information on the relative popularity of CPAN modules anywhere?


Solution

  • If you are interested in download counts, some numbers are available on PPM Index - look for popular modules. Data are a bit skewed, since it is Windows only, but you can get an idea.
