Webylene

1. Introduction

  Webylene is a MVC-ish web framework that tries to have a very small 

  learning curve to get started, doesn't tie your arms behind your back,

  

2. Directory Layout

  webylene root/

    bootstrap.lua - the bootstrap. don't mess with it.

    /objects      - objects dir. place objects you'll use here

      /core       - core objects. don't mess with them.

      /plugins    - plugin objects. place plugins here.

    /config       - config dir. place your config files here.

      /delayed    - place configs that shouldn't be autoloaded here

    /scripts      - page-specific scripts

                    put your scripts here. the router will map 

                    urls to scripts. see the router config.

    /templates    - templates (a.k.a. views) should be here

                    templates produce the actual output to browser.

    /web          - server root. only static content goes here

	  

3. Getting Started

  

  For easy development, you can start this Webylene project as a standalone HTTP

  server. ./bootstrap.lua --server=localhost:8080

  For details, see ./bootstrap.lua --help

	

  edit config/app.yaml - set database stuff and env stuff

  write scripts that handle requests to specific urls in scripts/

  route requests from desired urls to scripts in config/routes.yaml

  make templates in templates/
