[Catalyst] Templating languages (was RFC: The paradox of choice in web development)

[Ali M.]

I recommend you also take a look at
Template::Declare

I only saw a presentation about it from this presentation
http://www.slideshare.net/obrajesse/beijing-perl-workshop-2008-hiveminder-secret-sauce-presentation

looks pretty similar to Groovy builders.

Don't know how popular it is thought.
