Nancy is a great framework for building websites and it has been an important goal for Veil to integrate seamlessly in to your Nancy projects.
To get started you will first need to install Veil's view engine wrapper for Nancy.
Install-Package Nancy.ViewEngines.Veil
As you may know, AppHarbify is built with Nancy. One of the reasons I decided to build it in Nancy, other than the fact that Nancy is awesome, was that I wanted to put together a real project that can be used as an example of Nancy in action. All the code for AppHarbify is available on GitHub.
To go with that I am planning to put together some blog posts talking about various aspects of the code. To start with I am looking at sessions.
Since finishing up my day job last week, I have had some time to dedicate to a project idea I had a few months ago. It is now time to formally announce it.
Say hello to AppHarbify!
AppHarbify aims to make deploying common software to AppHarbor even easier. So easy that it can be done by non-technical people or from mobile devices.
It’s about 8 months since my first contribution to an open source project. It was followed up minutes later by one to reverse all the accidental formatting changes I made. Damn you Visual Studio!
Time for a quick tutorial on how to get a site up and running on AppHarbor using Nancy and MongoDb.
Today my toolset of choice for a quick learning session is Nancy.
Reading straight from the box
Nancy is a lightweight, low-ceremony, framework for building HTTP based services on .Net and Mono. The goal of the framework is to stay out of the way as much as possible and provide a super-duper-happy-path to all interactions.
Got that? Think of it as a replacement for WebForms or ASP.NET MVC.
