Is there perhaps a demo site of Morncat that we can log in and try it out before first making the effort to download, install, configure...?  For me -- at least -- it's nice to have context for the software I'll be installing.  What should I expect out of the software once it's installed?  Without context, it's hard to know if I've done it right or what I should be expecting...

 The site which can be built with Morncat has the same design as my site http://mojoblog.net. However you can change the menu configuration.

Hi Ivan, 
Great initiative. I’ve seen some other perl blogs, but yours seems already with all basic features. And the fact that has Mojo is a big plus too ;-)
In order to improve chance of adoption you may want to consider the following suggestions:
** Use a mobile responsive or mobile-first theme. Like http://themedemo.me/mobile-first/ or http://purecss.io/layouts/blog/
** Use SQLite over MySQL, makes installation easier; You can even populate the SQLite database with some demo data;
** Provide an installation script. (like for mojolicious itself)
** Come up with an icon and a favicon
** Put a nice letterbox-sized colorful picture in the heading (lots of rights-free available)
** Put the source on github, so other can work on it too
** Make the cms working from a subdirectory too, like mydomain.com/morncat. (Maybe a read it wrong but I am under the impression it only works under a domain directly) That makes playing with the cms before committing to it a lot easier.
** Add comments.  A quick way to do this is to add Disqus.

I wish you all the best with your project!

Or postgresql for larger sites.
