WebGUI (pronounced web-GOO-E) is a system that gives web administrators the ability to manage the appearance and features available in the user interface to fit each user's skill level. Its users and groups system allows control over content editing and viewing privileges, and the versioning and workflow systems allow for content approval hierarchies and tracking of content as it moves through the site. Everything in WebGUI is a template which allows for customization, while keeping the site content and style separate.

The system was originally built as an [[application framework]] by creator [[Plain Black Corporation]]<ref>[{{Cite web|url=http://www.plainblack.com/about_us pr|title=Plain Black, Corporation:makers about]of WebGUI - PR|website=www.plainblack.com}}</ref> to support their customer development work, but a majority of its current independent users utilize it as a [[Content management system|CMS]] with the modules with which it ships.

==History==

In 1999 a development project called Web Done Right<ref>[{{Cite web|url=http://www.plainblack.com/jt-smith|title=Plain JTBlack, Smith:makers Webof DoneWebGUI Right]- JT Smith|website=www.plainblack.com}}</ref> began in an effort to create a web application framework. Over the next several years, Web Done Right evolved and eventually became WebGUI. WebGUI and its parent company Plain Black Corporation were launched to the public in 2001.
