A Small Place To Experiment with Roda + Roar + Sequel

Roda PLUS Sequel PLUS Roar

Why not Rails?

Seriously who cares? This is a joint to explore Ruby outside of Rails. Moreover, it's a place to get lean, mean and green.

Why Not Datamapper

Datamapper hasn't been in active development for quite some time. Plus, and it's not really my concern but, DM doesn't currently work on Jruby.

Why Not All OF Trailblazer

Mainly because I think policy objects are kinda the death of everything. This, and Cells is completely broken in any every release. ROAR is a great representation layer for JSON quite a few adapters. The frontend for this app will likely use Elm to keep tooling to a minimum.
