# [NAME](#NAME)

App::cpm - a fast CPAN module installer

# [SYNOPSIS](#SYNOPSIS)

```
  > cpm install Module
```

# [DESCRIPTION](#DESCRIPTION)

cpm is a fast CPAN module installer.

cpm prepares dependencies first and performs final installation separately. By default, it installs the requested distributions and their runtime dependency closure.

This makes installs more stable and more predictable, especially for larger dependency graphs and parallel work.
