Mojoten - 10 Mojolicious Models in 10 days

# run the webapp port 3000
morbo script/mojoten

This project is inspired by 10 Catalyst Models in 10 Days by Ashley Pond V, using Mojolicious for the web framework instead of Catalyst. I started this mainly so I can practice writing Modern Perl while also learning more about writing good HTML5 and JavaScript. Aside from Mojolicious, I will also be using jQuery (bundled with Mojolicious) and Modernizr for UI and decoration, as well as web fonts from Font Squirrel and Google Web Fonts.

Aside from the aforementioned learning goals, I'm also going for the following:

• Despite the name "Mojo Models", I'll be writing the models in such a way as they can be made standalone as possible, preferring to either use them directly in a Mojolicious::Controller, or interact with them through an adaptor class that pulls them in via Mojo::Base. That way, I can pull these models out when I want, say, to do a Dancer-based practice project instead of Mojo ;)
• Practice good design as much as possible. Not only in code, but also in visual/print design as well. HTML5/CSS3 offers a richer set of possibilities for web designs than ever before; make sure I get to use it!
• Write tests for the models, where applicable. This especially gets difficult as the practice calls for enhancing the app using JavaScript, so I need to learn of ways to do proper testing...
