  • Simple usage, and you don't have to make everything non-block.
  • Prefork production server, with signal-based management which enables graceful restart.
  • Route actions with scanf-like DSL.
  • Simple request format matcher.
  • Optimized render and layout helpers, easy to stream the view.

Caveats

  • Not based on rack.
  • Not compatible with eventmachine. It won't work if you add gems like em-synchrony.
  • Not yet another ruby async framework, some features in a common async IO framework are not implemented.
  • Doesn't and won't work on JRuby or lower versions of Ruby.
  • Doesn't and won't work on Windows.
