Snap Framework

--------------

Snap is a simple and fast web development framework and server written in

Haskell. For more information or to download the latest version, you can visit

the Snap project website at http://snapframework.com/.

Snap Status and Features

------------------------

The Snap core system consists of:

  * a high-speed HTTP server, with an optional high-concurrency backend using

    the [libev](http://software.schmorp.de/pkg/libev.html) library

  * a sensible and clean monad for web programming

  * an xml-based templating system for generating HTML that allows you to bind

    Haskell functionality to XML tags without getting PHP-style tag soup all

    over your pants

  * a "snaplet" system for building web sites from composable pieces.

Snap is currently only officially supported on Unix platforms; it has been

tested on Linux and Mac OSX Snow Leopard, and is reported to work on Windows.

Snap Philosophy

---------------

Snap aims to be the *de facto* web toolkit for Haskell, on the basis of:

  * High performance

  * High design standards

  * Simplicity and ease of use, even for Haskell beginners

  * Excellent documentation

  * Robustness and high test coverage
