Nice post. I also do a lot of web app development using perl on an Ubuntu machine. I tend to use vi (or gvim) as my editor, but Eclipse with the EPIC plugin is also good. I use svn (subversion) for source code control. Eclipse has a
plugin for svn called subclipse, that makes using it pretty easy. I don't compile my own perl, but I tend to install modules from CPAN into a local lib directory. If I have to install an app on another server, then I can just tar up that lib - it saves having to reinstall everything. But I only do this for pure perl stuff. For something like DBI, I use synaptic package manager to install at the system level. I also install apache and mysql, so I can run a complete developer version of my web apps offline, on my local machine.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
