Web Framework
RingoJS up to version 0.7 tried to provide a more or less complete web framework. With release 0.8 we shifted directions to concentrate on lower level functionality. Ringo still provides client and server side HTTP support, but focuses on providing basic capability instead of a complete, well-rounded framework.
The intention behind this move is to give the community space to come up with their own frameworks and solutions.
The HTTP specific features that are available in RingoJS include:
- Jetty based HTTP server and client providing both synchronous and asynchronous operation.
- HTTP parameter parsing.
- HTTP file upload support.
- Convenience functions for various types of HTTP responses.
- A mustache.js based templating engine.
