== soupy a full-featured web framework powered by scala, highly inspired by ruby on rails3. including:MVC-Routes, View-Composition, ORM. support development,production,test mode.

== stage early experimental stage. only chunks of code in mass.

== modules

• MVC-Routes use rails3 style declaration, with compiler's check.
• View-Composition
  • view template engine: prototype-oriented programming
  • Arbitrary composition: component-based programming. for example, layout is a normal top level composition.
• ORM
  • design as DataMapper mode, with ActiveRecord3 API Style.
  • full-compiler & IDE utilities.

== why? Q: Why not just ruby on rails? A: Not static typed, no compile-phase check, performance scare, not java close friendly. scala is here instead of jruby, groovy.(groovy++ is promising, but too young) Q: Why not scalatra, lift, even playframework? A: All of them have things I dislike, and I want to create one from ground. Q: Why name as soupy? A: Thanks to jsoup library used in my first version. Q: Why no rack style layer,no framework-agnostic,no micro-core and plugin architecture, no CoC enough,... A: We are young, and we are not that clear. Expect your suggestion.

== Usage ooooooooops, see source code.
