Create HTML from JSON in Perl

#!/usr/bin/perl

use strict;
use warnings;
use utf8;
use JSON;
use autodie;
use HTML::TreeBuilder;

my $string;
{
    local $/;
    open my $fh1,"<files.json" or die "open failed <files.json>: $!\n";
    $string = <$fh1>;
    close $fh1 or die "close failed <files.json>: $!\n";
}

# Parse JSON in PERL
my $data = decode_json($string);

# Initialize HTML
my $html = "<html><head><title>JSON Viewer</title></head><body><table border=\"1\"><thead><tr><th width=\"300\">Keys</th><th width=\"500\">Values</th></tr></thead><tbody>";

# Update HTML
foreach my $key (keys(%$data))
{
    $html = $html."<tr><td>".$key."</td><td>";
    my $values = $data->{$key};
    foreach my $value (@{$values})
    {
        $html = $html.$value."<br/>";
    }
    $html = $html."</td></tr>";
}
   
# Generate HTML
$html = $html."</tbody></table></body></html>";
my $h = HTML::TreeBuilder->new_from_content($html);
open my $fh2,">files.html" or die "open failed <files.html>: $!\n";
print $fh2 $h->as_HTML('',"\t") or die "print failed <files.html>: $!\n";
close $fh2 or die "close failed <files.html>: $!\n";
