Introduction
Handel is a quick and not-so-dirty ecommerce framework written in Perl. It consists of a set of core modules to do basic cart interactions and order processing via a plugin based pipeline.
While Handel is written to be web agnostic, it does support various different web based languages and framesworks including AxKit, Template Toolkit and Catalyst.
It was started for the conversion of an IIS/ASP based commerce site to Apache/ModPerl, but I decided that is might be useful to others so here it is on CPAN.
For the curious, Handel is German for commerce.
