Perl-lsp is a language server for Perl that provides deep semantic analysis, type inference, and cross-file intelligence without requiring annotations. It's built on tree-sitter and Rust, offering features like goto-definition, rename, hover, and framework awareness for Moo/Moose, Mojo::Base, DBIC, and Perl's native class syntax, making modern Perl development significantly more productive.

Target audience: backend devs
