in reply to My first memorable Perl project was:

End of the 90 the internet was still young, more and more students had access.

I learned HTML and JavaScript and created static content management and tutorials for uni courses in Bash. They were meant to be downloaded too.

Hit the wall with bash and started migrating some parts to Perl by googling examples.

Monstrous code mash.

Took me awhile to realize that try and error with Bash and Basic background isn't good enough for Perl.
