WebPerl TODOs

http://webperl.zero-g.net

1. Documentation (Website)

   • Check if intra-page links work

2. Testing

   • Continue work on WebPerl.t
     • More tests for Unicode support (Perl/JS interface, Perl.eval(), plus Emscripten's virtual FS)
   • Focus on getting the tests running in the browser instead of node.js
   • How to best package tests?
     • If possible, a separate bundle, so that it can be loaded optionally and we don't need to rebuild
     • How does make test find and handle all the various modules' ts?
   • How to best disable individual tests that we know won't work? (qx etc.)
   • How to handle the many tests that call an external Perl?
     • patching t/test.pl's runperl() seems easiest at the moment, and we can use the iframe method from the IDE

3. Misc

   • Test if a CDN would work
   • Optimization: When js() is called in void context, we don't need to return anything from JS (except errors) or set up GlueTable entries
