The Grapes of Rapid
summary
Announces Grape 0.1.0 on rubygems as a Rack micro-framework inspired by Sinatra that yields a DSL for REST APIs, with built-in JSON serialization, prefixing, URL name spacing, stacked versioning, helpers and basic HTTP auth; OAuth middlewares and multi-file mounting are in progress; a demo app (Comfast on Heroku) is built in about ten minutes but the live demo misbehaves, and GrapeDoc automatic docs generation is planned but unfinished.
