Cask: a Scala HTTP micro-framework
==================================

```scala
object MinimalApplication extends cask.MainRoutes{
  @cask.get("/")
  def hello() = {
    "Hello World!"
  }

  @cask.post("/do-thing")
  def doThing(request: cask.Request) = {
    new String(request.readAllBytes()).reverse
  }

  initialize()
}
```

Cask is a simple Scala web framework inspired by Python's
[Flask](http://flask.pocoo.org/docs/1.0/) project. It aims to bring simplicity,
flexibility and ease-of-use to Scala webservers, avoiding cryptic DSLs or
complicated asynchrony.
