Plack is a set of tools for using the PSGI stack. It contains middleware
components, a reference server and utilities for Web application
frameworks. Plack is like Ruby's Rack or Python's Paste for WSGI.
See PSGI for the PSGI specification and PSGI::FAQ to know what PSGI and
Plack are and why we need them.

This document specifies a standard interface between web servers and
Perl web applications or frameworks, to promote web application
portability and reduce the duplicated efforts by web application
framework developers.

Rainbows! is an HTTP server for sleepy Rack applications. It is based
on Unicorn, but designed to handle applications that expect long
request/response times and/or slow clients.

advantage of features in Unix/Unix-like kernels and only serve
fast clients on low-latency, high-bandwidth connections.

Rack::Test is a small, simple testing API for Rack apps. It can be used
on its own or as a reusable starting point for Web frameworks and
testing libraries to build on.

Rack::Mount is a stackable dynamic tree based Rack router. Rack::Mount
supports Rack's +X-Cascade+ convention to continue trying routes if the
response returns pass. This allows multiple routes to be nested or
stacked on top of each other. Since the application endpoint can trigger
the router to continue matching, middleware can be used to add arbitrary
conditions to any route. This allows you to route based on other request
attributes, session information, or even data dynamically pulled from a
database.

Canto is an Atom/RSS feed reader for the console that is meant to be
quick, concise, and colorful. It provides a minimal, yet information
packed interface with almost infinite customization and extensibility.

This module adds PHP-based password strength checking and validation
routines that mirror the jQuery routines, so that administrators can
restrict passwords to only be, for example, "high" strength. The module
simply modifies existing password confirm fields (where two passwords
are entered, like the user edit form), so no other setup is required
beyond configuring the desired enforcement rules.
