Minification and concatenation of CSS and Javascript (with Plack?)

[Pierre M]

Ok, now I've tried
Plack::Middleware::Assets<https://metacpan.org/pod/Plack::Middleware::Assets>with
the right list of files but nothing seems to happen:
 - the chrome dev tools don't indicate that the files have been minified or
concatenated (which might be normal as it's happening server-side?)
 - the page loading time doesn't improve; while when i concatenated the
files manually, the loading time decreased significantly.

I've also tried Plack::App::MCCS
<https://metacpan.org/pod/Plack::App::MCCS>by doing
    my $app = builder {
        # Loading some Plack::Middlewares...
        MyApp->dance;
    }
    builder {
        mount '/public' => Plack::App::MCCS->new(root => '/public');
        mount '/' => $app;
    }
which gives a similar result.

I probably did something wrong (but not wrong enough that the app doesn't
run). I might end up putting some print statements inside these modules, to
see what's going on. Sleepy time now. I'll investigate further on Monday.
