Frameworks

Lotus combines small yet powerful frameworks:

Lotus::Utils - Ruby core extensions and class utilities
Lotus::Router - Rack compatible HTTP router for Ruby
Lotus::Validations - Validation mixin for Ruby objects
Lotus::Helpers - View helpers for Ruby applications
Lotus::Model - Persistence with entities, repositories and data mapper
Lotus::View - Presentation with a separation between views and templates

These components are designed to be used independently or together in a Lotus application. If you aren't familiar with them, please take time to go through their READMEs.
