start with https://www.perl.org/books/beginning-perl/, then to read
http://www.masonbook.com/
for Perl you have the perl debugger http://perldoc.perl.org/perldebug.html,
you can run tests scripts to debug your templates with it
HTML::Mason is compiled into Perl code and ran on the backend and the
output, including the js code is sent to the browser; the javascript runs
in the browser: you can't debug them in the same time
