% The Ultimate Website Framework

TUWF is a very small and lightweight web development framework for Perl. It has evolved from being a few abstraction layers in two large websites to a separate set of modules. While initially designed to be used for large and complex websites, it is also perfectly suited for small single-file websites.

Main features

  • Very small, and no extra modules required for the base functionality,
  • Easy built-in routing,
  • Handy form validation functions,
  • Easy XML/HTML generation,
  • Response buffering and output compression,
  • Easy access to request data,
  • Support for CGI, FastCGI and a built-in web server,
  • Uses UTF-8 for all text,
  • Convenient SQL execution functions and correct transaction handling,
  • Open source (duh!) and available under a liberal MIT license.

Read the description in the documentation for more information and details.
