Inspiration

I know there are a lot of awesome frameworks out there. So some might ask why did I write my own. Actually I created this to learn how the web framework actually works.

I started this after following Jahongir Rahmonov's blog post about writing a web framework. Feel free to check out his WSGI framework Alcazar.

More features will be added in the future. You can checkout the project board.
