So it doesn't really matter that you eventually don't intend to use TT, you
still need a solid grounding in the core concepts which the tutorial will give
you. Right now you're trying to pay attention to too many things at once. Go

of head scratching down the track.
Meanwhile a quick search on cpan for Catalyst::View::HTML::Template will find
you what you need.
