You could have a development-specific script for starting your application, where you set extra environment variables or call Test::File::ShareDir or whatever to set up your dev-specific environment. This is also useful for adding extra dev-specific code, such as profilers, Plack::Middleware::Debug etc, setting the number of starman workers to 2 instead of 100, disabling monitoring, etc etc.
