No, Plack is deployment glue for apps. If there’s a framework in there
between the app and the glue, that’s a separate layer altogether.

I’ve never installed Task::Plack in my life. As for Plack itself, try
installing LWP first, then watch how many deps Plack installs on top of
that: only a handful, all pure-Perl if I’ve looked them up carefully.
