Ya, the beauty of using a modern stack is that the developer doesn't have to know or care about deployment.

In the case of Catalyst, as a coder I write my web app using the built-in lightweight development "server" and deployment is someone else's problem. The deployer can choose whatever web server(s) s/he is comfortable with, Cool this week, already Popular here, Corporate Approved, or whatever. :)

Another example is using PSGI/Plack directly, if you dislike scaffolding. http://plackperl.org/

Or Dancer. https://metacpan.org/module/Dancer::Cookbook#Your-first-Dancer-web-app
