== Citrus Perl == [https://sourceforge.net/projects/citrusperl/ Citrus Perl] was one of the closest earlier attempts to make Perl GUI development easier. It was a binary Perl distribution aimed at GUI application developers and included wxPerl. SourceForge describes Citrus Perl as a Perl distribution with pre-built wxPerl modules against wxWidgets 3.0.2, built with Perl 5.24.1, and targeted at users developing wxPerl GUI applications. * [https://sourceforge.net/projects/citrusperl/files/ Citrus Perl files on SourceForge] The value of Citrus Perl was that it reduced the build-stack problem. Instead of making every Windows developer assemble Perl, wxWidgets, wxPerl, compilers, and supporting libraries, it tried to ship a coherent distribution. Its limitation was that it was still a distribution, not a full RAD environment. It helped with runtime and module availability, but it did not become a lasting ecosystem with a current IDE, visual designer, packaging workflow, and installer workflow all moving together.
