Goals

• Add features at ONE place in ONE language (html/css/js may be required for some advanced/custom usages)

• Be fast, with built-in search engine

• Ajax (ajaj in fact) - with nice fallbacks for old browsers

• No SQL

• Website: as simple as a nested dict-like objects tree, endpoints (last element of URL) are object’s properties & methods

• Make it as productive as possible for most generic tasks

Out of the box, it is something between a wiki and a cms, probably a good base for a lightweight web CMS / Intranet / Forum / etc!
