This module provides GUI interface for controlling Catalyst server and viewing console output generated. It captures both STDOUT and STDERR.
It provides tray icon in GNOME notification area and a GTK window on desktop. It is set always on top by default. You can drag window to any screen corner for convenience.
Server can be controlled from window as well as tray icon. You can hide window by minimizing it. Tray icon changes according to server status.
User can view console output and manually restart server from menu.
Whenever any file of project is updated, developer can immediately check server status without switching to console.
This module extends Catalyst::Restarter and depends on its _watcher and _handle_events.
