Welcome to the wonderful world of Catalyst. This MVC framework will make web development something you had never expected it to be: fun, rewarding and quick.

What to do now?

That really all depends on what you want to do. We do, however, provide you with a few starting points.

If you would like some background information on the MVC-pattern, these links might be able to help you out.

What to do next?

Next you need to create an actual application. Use the helper scripts for what they are worth, they can save you a lot of work getting everything set up. Also, be sure to check out the vast array of plugins for Catalyst. They can handle everything from authentication to static files, and a whole lot in between.
