with the exception that Bubblegum implements it's own autoboxing architecture. The Bubblegum autobox classes are the foundation for this development framework. The decision to re-implement many core and autobox functions was based on the desire to build-in data validation and design a system using roles for a higher level of abstraction. Bubblegum will also default to including Moo as an object system. For example:

use Bubblegum::Class;                   # Bubblegum w/ Moo
use Bubblegum::Prototype;               # Bubblegum w/ Moo (Prototype)
use Bubblegum::Role;                    # Bubblegum w/ Moo (Role)
use Bubblegum::Singleton;               # Bubblegum w/ Moo (Singleton)

Please review the Bubblegum documentation for more information and usage patterns.
