This software is a Perl module building and installation class. It allows developers to create and install modules written in Perl.
If you are looking for a system that simplifies building, testing, and installing Perl modules, Module::Build is the way to go. The software is a perfect alternative to ExtUtils::MakeMaker, and it has a more straightforward way of altering module behavior through subclassing. Unlike other software, Module::Build does not require a make on your system. Additionally, it is written in a cross-platform way, making it easily adaptable for use on platforms such as MacOS.
Module::Build has only one prerequisite - modules included with Perl 5.6.0, which is easy to install. Even if you are operating on a system with Perl 5.005, it works just fine provided that you can install a few more additional modules. In conclusion, Module::Build is an excellent software to add to your toolkit as a developer.
