Technically it's [Kemal](kemalcr.com) but abstracted\naway.  The goal is to organize and utilize the underlying web framework in such a way that it\nfeels as familiar as developing in Rails itself.\n\nThis project should be considered a template and example only. This will not be versioned\nand will have breaking changes if you were to depend on this as a code dependency.  To use\nthis repo simply clone it and make your modifications.\n\n## Why\n\n1) It's a great learning experience.\n\n2) The Crystal language is still young and likely has many breaking changes ahead in it's future.  This\nis already evident from the [Frost](https://github.com/ysbaddaden/frost) project which was meant to be Rails for Crystal but hasn't been updated\nin about a year and stopped working with Crystal many minor versions ago.  The best way to work with Crystal\nwhile it's still young and volatile is to work with simple and smaller abstractions with the minimum amount\nof contingency on the non-Rubyish parts of the language.  This will help keep your project alive as Crystal\nevolves.\n\n## Development\n\nThis project is open for continued advancement towards a more Rails-like design.\n\n## Deployment\n\n * **Heroku**: At this time the Heroku buildpack for Crystal conflicts with the use of the `app` directory.  See issue: [crystal-lang/heroku-buildpack-crystal/issues/19](https://github.com/crystal-lang/heroku-buildpack-crystal/issues/19) .  Until this issue is resolved you may use an alternative one I've made: [danielpclark/heroku-buildpack-crystal](https://github.com/danielpclark/heroku-buildpack-crystal)\n\n## Contributing\n\n1. Fork it ( https://github.com/danielpclark/railslike/fork )\n2. Create your feature branch (git checkout -b my-new-feature)\n3. Commit your changes (git commit -am 'Add some feature')\n4. Push to the branch (git push origin my-new-feature)\n5. Create a new Pull Request\n\n## Contributors\n\n- [danielpclark](https://github.com/danielpclark) Daniel P.
