At the moment Dancer2 is not packable with PAR. While it is Fatpackable, this leaves out the option of having packs which rely on XS bindings such as with packages as Crypt::NaCl::Sodium

Research direction

Start by examining how Dancer2 currently supports Fatpackable packaging and identify the PAR packaging entry points. Investigate the requirements for preserving XS bindings such as Crypt::NaCl::Sodium. Done means a Dancer2 distribution can be packed with PAR while retaining support for packages with XS bindings.
