I sometimes think it would be a great feature, if you could direct one (or more) live_loops (or buffers) to separate outputs - as if a live_loop or a buffer was something like a track or channel.
I have no idea if that is even technically possible and also how I would use such a feature running on my Linux system (allthough I think it should be perfectly possible via Jack).
Right now I am thinking this would make it possible to

prelisten to a running live_loop and further more

you could do some post-mixing

Does anyone share this interest? And is it a feasable feature at all?

% mojo generate lite_app optional
...
% $EDITOR optional

One could mark the date as optional by giving it a default value of undef:

#!/usr/bin/env perl
use Mojolicious::Lite -signatures;

get '/vote/:value/*when' => { when => undef } => sub ($c) {
    my $value = $c->stash('value');
    my $when  = $c->stash('when');
    $c->render(
        format => 'txt',
        text   => $value . ' ' . ( defined $when ? $when : 'nope' ) . "\n"
    );
};

app->start;

which then allows with-or-without the date queries:

% ./optional get /vote/42 2>/dev/null
42 nope
% ./optional get /vote/42/2020/01/07 2>/dev/null
42 2020/01/07
% 

app.get('/:var(bla|blabla)?', todo)

:var sets the req.param that you don't use. it's only used in this case to set the regex.

(bla|blabla) sets the regex to match, so it matches the strings bla and blablah.

? makes the entire regex optional, so it matches / as well.
