ZofCMS is a web framework and a templating system for small-to-medium scale web pages. It's written in Perl and distributed under the Perl Licensing terms. The main design goal of ZofCMS is ease of deployment without learning thirty pages of material just to get started. ZofCMS uses HTML::Template as its templating engine which you can learn in five minutes, even if you haven't used it before. Overall, ZofCMS consist of "configuation file", "ZofCMS templates" and "HTML::Template templates". Configuration file and ZofCMS templates are nothing but files with Perl hashrefs. Code that is common to all ZofCMS templates or just the templates in certain "directories" can be stuffed into the configuration file to avoid repition.
