In April 2011, Dancer was rewritten from scratch and released as Dancer2. The reason for the rewrite was to fix architectural issues and eliminate the use of singletons.[2] Development of Dancer1 was at first frozen, but was later continued to maintain backward compatibility for existing apps.[3]
Dancer is developed through GitHub, with stable releases available via CPAN. Dancer2 is released as a separate module.
