This module adds a create_structured_tree subroutine to the
Directory::Scratch.
ExtUtils::Config is an abstraction around the %Config hash.
ExtUtils::Constant facilitates generating C and XS wrapper code to allow
perl modules to AUTOLOAD constants defined in C library header files.
It is principally used by the h2xs utility, on which this code is based.
It doesn't contain the routines to scan header files to extract these
constants.
It's often inconvenient to correctly create a platform-independent
temporary storage space, manipulate files inside it, then clean it up.
This module aims to eliminate that problem by making it easy to do
things right.

ExtUtils::Helpers provides various portable helper functions for module
building modules.
This module handles the installing and uninstalling of perl modules,
scripts, man pages, etc...
Both install() and uninstall() are specific to the way
ExtUtils::MakeMaker handles the installation and deinstallation of
perl modules. They are not designed as general purpose tools.
"Joseki" is a japanese term from the game Go and means "a formulaic sequence of
moves which is established for giving equal outcomes to both players", but it
has come into general use to describe any fixed form of behaviour.
Dist::Joseki offers you tools that help you in developing Perl module
distributions if you stick to a certain formulaic style of structuring your
distributions.
This module provides an easy interface for getting various metadata
about a Perl module distribution.
Dist::Zilla builds distributions of code to be uploaded to the CPAN.
In this respect, it is like ExtUtils::MakeMaker, Module::Build, or
Module::Install. Unlike those tools, however, it is not also a
system for installing code that has been downloaded from the CPAN.
Since it's only run by authors, and is meant to be run on a repository
checkout rather than on published, released code, it can do much
more than those tools, and is free to make much more ludicrous
demands in terms of prerequisites.
