----+++ Title: !HAppS

----+++ Abstract

The Haskell Application Server (!HAppS, [[http://happs.org]]) is a web framework
for writing server applications. If that sounds too vague for you, imagine
doing backend web programming with Haskell.

A unique feature of !HAppS that it offers a novel way to manage persistent
state in a purely Haskell way, without the need to use a DBMS-system, with
great performance.

You might have looked at !HAppS before, but since it only started to
stabilize the last half year or so, it might be worth a look again.

I will give a demo of a small !HAppS application (the start of a wiki), and
show lots of actual code, right down to the 'inside' of !HAppS, so you'll
see how it really works.
