glim - 0.11.x[deprecated]
=========================
This repo is deprecated due to maintenance cost.
[Documentation](http://glim.readme.io)
[Roadmap](http://glim.readme.io/v0.8.6/docs/roadmap)
[Changelog](https://github.com/aacanakin/glim/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md)
glim is a modern web framework on top of [bottle](http://bottlepy.org/docs/0.12/) inspired from [play](https://www.playframework.com/) & [laravel](http://laravel.com/). The aim is to build a lightweight architecture for web app development. The development philosophy here is to make the core small as possible but still not featureless. It has a conventional extension system that can boot objects with configuration. It also has a handful set of extensions for view rendering, templating and performing database operations. You can check [glim_extensions](https://github.com/aacanakin/glim-extensions) repository for much more information.
Features
--------
- Convention over configuration
- A powerful routing system which has grouping & filtering
- A controller layer for request handling, service calling, etc.
- A set of handful extensions that includes SQLAlchemy, Jinja2, redis, etc. integrations
- An object oriented command line layer
- An extension system that developers can integrate to the framework

glim is
-------
- small & lightweight
- great for painless web app development
- great for api development
glim isn't
----------
- django
- flask
- stable currently :(
NOTE: The framework is in its early stages in development. So, there are lots of backward incompatible changes constantly. So the web server may not even start but feel free to play with it!
