+# Packaging a Perl (CPAM) package
+
+Packaging a Perl package is similar to packaging a Python package!
+
+## Building a Perl Package
+
+### A perl `noarch: generic` package
+
+The following recipe is for the Perl package `Call::Context`. We use `perl` in the `host` requirements, and install the package using `make`.
+The `noarch: generic` is used to indicate that the package is architecture-independent - since this is a pure Perl package, it can be installed and run on any platform (`noarch`).
+
+```yaml title="recipe.yaml"

+  version: 0.03

+package:
+  name: perl-call-context

+
+### A perl package with a C extension
+
+Some `perl` packages have native code extensions. In this example, we will build a package for the Perl package `Data::Dumper` using the `C` compiler.
+The `c` compiler and `make` are required at build time in the `build` requirements to compile the native code extension.
+We use `perl` in the `host` requirements, and install the package using `make`.
+
+```yaml title="recipe.yaml"
