[Buffalo-pm] Application Development Framework...

[Andrew Gianni]

We use CGI::Prototype and I really enjoy working with it. It¹s enormously
flexible and relatively straightforward to get started with. It¹s only the
controller, though, so you¹ll have to pick your own model and view. We
currently use Class::DBI and CGI::P¹s default code assumes Template Toolkit,
but you can override that pretty easily. Also, there is not the large
collection of plug-ins that exist for CGI::A, for example. Overall, it¹s
worth a look. You will probably want to work with CGI::Prototype::Hidden as
your base class, as it implements state maintenance, unless you want to
implement that yourself.

Terrence Brannon put together a CPAN module with links to what limited
documentation exists on the module:
