Unfortunately, there is no demo site. If you create stories with the default elements in the system and preview them, the default templates will render your stories (in a very ugly way). If you create a Destination to distribute those stories, you can then publish them.I got the workspace side running with only a little fiddling to back out a CPAN-installed Mason 1.15, but still don't understand how to publish pages to a viewing site. Is a working example included or available? I was hoping for something like http://www.plone.org has as a starting point (but of course I want to use apache/mod_perl instead of zope/python). Or do I just have to learn a lot more about Mason myself?
But if you want to customize the look and feel of the templates for your own site, you are going to have to learn how to create templates. This is even more true if you create your own elements. The documentation for Mason templates is in Bric::Templates and Bric::AdvTemplates. But no, you don't have to learn Mason; you can use HTML::Template templates, instead, if you like. The documentation for HTML::Template templates is in, you guessed it, Bric::HTMLTemplate. BTW, all of the Bricolage documentation is available online, too, although be aware that the online copies are for the development version of Bricolage.

Good luck!
