NAME
    MooseX::Atom - Non-immutable classes are silly. Lets fix that.

SYNOPSIS
      # Catalyst the official way
      package Foo;
      
  use Moose;
      use namespace::autoclean;
      
  BEGIN {
          extends 'Catalyst::Controller::REST';
          
      with 'My::Something';
      }
      
  __PACKAGE__->meta->make_immutable;
      
  
  
  # Catalyst the (equivalent) atomic way
      package Bar;
      
  use MooseX::Atom [
            extends => 'Catalyst::Controller::REST',
            with    => 'My::Something',
      ];

DESCRIPTION
    WARNING: THIS MODULE IS PRIMARILY A POLITICAL STATEMENT AT THIS TIME AND
    MAY CHANGE WITHOUT NOTICE IN RESPONSE TO FEEDBACK

    Moose is an interesting object system, but it's interface can leave a
    lot to be desired.

    Classes are built incrementally at post-BEGIN time despite the
    appearance to being declared at compile time.

    Classes are also polluted by exported symbols by default.

    Additionally, the syntax of the workarounds to reverse some of this
    weirdness is ugly. "__PACKAGE__-"meta->make_immutable> is possibly one
    of the worst official API interactions of all time.

    MooseX::Atom attempts to resolve as much of this as possible, in as
    little code as possible and with no additional dependencies or dramatic
    parser-alterations such as with MooseX::Declare.

    Declarations are passed directly in the "use" line, nothing is left in
    the calling class, and the class will be automatically and immediately
    immutable.

    The resulting alternative syntax for Moose may not be ideal, but it
    demonstrates the kind of alternative syntactic sugar that would at least
    be far nicer than the one we get out of the box.

    Equivalent syntactic sugar for roles is provided by MooseX::Role::Atom.
