The best point to start on working with Mojolicious is by reading the official Mojolicious::Lite tutorial. If you are new to Perl, see the introduction of the official Mojolicious documentation.
You should also take a look at the wonderful Mojocasts, which, while dated, still contain a lot of valuable information. Just watch out for two things that have changed since the first two screencasts have been produced, $self->render_text(...) has become $self->render(text => ...), the relaxed placeholder /(.foo) is now /#foo and the image http://mojolicio.us/mojolicious-black.png has been moved to http://mojolicio.us/mojo/logo-black.png.
