Lesson plan
WebGUI
WebGUI is an open-source content management system written in Perl and released under the GNU General Public License. The system permits non-technically minded users to arrange content in pages and layouts, containing 'Assets' (applets) which permit website visitors to view and interact with various types of data from basic Articles to full-blown content management system and custom applications. In July 2014, Scott Walters proposed a project on Kickstarter to bring the nascent Version 8 rewrite to a formal release with a supporting free software community. Version 8 is, according to the Kickstarter project page, "a massive modernization effort that reworked core to use Moose, Plack, Try::Tiny" along with a general code cleanup. The project achieved its crowd funding goal on July 16, 2014.
