gustin/dissident
A framework designed to break standard web application conventions and embrace the technologies that exist rather than hinder them. This framework is based on Erlang as an extension of mochiweb and will leverage a JQuery JSON based AJAX head pattern for its entire view rendering. Unlike most frameworks this one is designed from the ground up for massive scale and nine 9s reliability.
