CMSMS makes it easy to set up a site and then hand it
over to non-techies to maintain. Unlike other CMS
packages, it isn't over-complex, and it isn't just for
blogs. The drop-down site navigation menus are the
icing on the cake: just so easy to use. There's an
excellent support forum too.
Mason is a tool for building, serving and managing large web sites. Its features
make it an ideal backend for high load sites serving dynamic content, such as
online newspapers or database driven e-commerce sites.
Mason's various pieces revolve around the notion of "components". A component is
a mix of HTML, Perl, and special Mason commands, one component per file.
So-called "top-level" components represent entire web-pages, while smaller
components typically return HTML snippets for embedding in top-level components.
This object-like architecture greatly simplifies site maintenance: change a
shared component, and you instantly changed all dependant pages that refer to it
across a site (or across many virtual sites).
Mason's component syntax lets designers separate a web page into programmatic
and design elements. This means the esoteric Perl bits can be hidden near the
bottom of a component, preloading simple variables for use above in the HTML. In
our own experience, this frees content managers (i.e., non-programmers) to work
on the layout without getting mired in programming details. Techies, however,
still enjoy the full power of Perl.
This module implements an HTML widget with multiple layers. Only one
layer is visible at any given time, controlled by a <SELECT> box.
The HTML generated by this module uses JavaScript, but nevertheless
attempts to be as cross-browser as possible, testing for features via
DOM support rather than specific browsers or versions.
Dillo aims to be a multiplatform alternative browser that's small,
stable, developer-friendly, usable, fast, and extensible. This
new, experimental version of Dillo is based upon FLTK toolkit,
rather than GTK1, and has been substantially rewritten.
DokuWiki is a standards compliant, simple to use Wiki, mainly aimed at
creating documentation of any kind. It is targeted at developer teams,
workgroups and small companies. It has a simple but powerful syntax which
makes sure the datafiles remain readable outside the Wiki and eases the
creation of structured texts.
All data is stored in plain text files - no database is required.
Kwiki - The Kwiki Wiki Building Framework
A Wiki is a website that allows its users to add pages, and edit any
existing pages. It is one of the most popular forms of web
collaboration. If you are new to wiki, visit
http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?WelcomeVisitors which is possibly the oldest
wiki, and has lots of information about how wikis work.
Kwiki is a Perl wiki implementation based on the Spoon application
architecture and using the Spiffy object orientation model. The major
goals of Kwiki are that it be easy to install, maintain and extend.
All the features of a Kwiki wiki come from plugin modules. The base
installation comes with the bare minimum plugins to make a working
Kwiki. To make a really nice Kwiki installation you need to install
additional plugins. Which plugins you pick is entirely up to you.
Another goal of Kwiki is that every installation will be unique. When
there are hundreds of plugins available, this will hopefully be the
case.
FluxBB is an open source forum application released under the
GNU General Public Licence. It is free to download and use and
will remain so. FluxBB was conceived and designed to be fast and
light with less of the "not so essential" features that some of
the other forums have whilst not sacrificing essential functionality
or usability.
Freeway is by far the largest and most fully featured
Open Source eCommerce platform. It doesn't just sell
products but extends to sell in some very fancy new
ways and is very configurable. For example, you can
just sell products if you are not interested in the
other selling methods.
You will find Freeway has very strong CRM features as
well as a useful and simple CMS as well.
