+NAME
+ Jifty -- Just Do It
+
+DESCRIPTION
+ Yet another web framework.
+
+ What's cool about Jifty? (Buzzwords)
+ DRY (Don't Repeat Yourself)
+ Jifty tries not to make you say things more than once.
+
+ Full-stack
+ Out of the proverbial box, Jifty comes with one way to do everything
+ you should need to do: One database mapper, one templating system,
+ one web services layer, one AJAX toolkit, one set of handlers for
+ standalone or FastCGI servers. We work hard to make all the bits
+ play well together, so you don't have to.
+
+ Continuations
+ With Jifty, it's easy to let the user go off and do something else,
+ like fill out a wizard, look something up in the help system or go
+ twiddle their preferences and come right back to where they were.
+
+ Form-based dispatch
+ This is one of the things that Jifty does that we've not seen
+ anywhere else. Jifty owns your form rendering and processing. This
+ means you never need to write form handling logic. All you say is "I
+ want an input for this argument here" and Jifty takes care of the
+ rest. (Even autocomplete and validation)
+
+ A Pony
+ Jifty is the only web application framework that comes with a pony.
+
+ Introduction
+ If this is your first time using Jifty, Jifty::Manual::Tutorial is
+ probably a better place to start.
+
+METHODS
+ new PARAMHASH
+ This class method instantiates a new "Jifty" object. This object deals
+ with configuration files, logging and database handles for the system.
+ Most of the time, the server will call this for you to set up your
+ "Jifty" object. If you are writing command-line programs htat want to
+ use your libraries (as opposed to web services) you will need to call
+ this yourself.
+
+ See Jifty::Config for details on how to configure your Jifty
+ application.
+
+ Arguments
+ no_handle
+ If this is set to true, Jifty will not create a Jifty::Handle and
+ connect to a database. Only use this if you're about to drop the
+ database or do something extreme like that; most of Jifty expects
+ the handle to exist. Defaults to false.
+
+ config
+ An accessor for the Jifty::Config object that stores the configuration
+ for the Jifty application.
+
+ logger
+ An accessor for our Jifty::Logger object for the application.
+
+ handle
+ An accessor for the Jifty::Handle object that stores the database handle
+ for the application.
+
+ web
+ An accessor for the Jifty::Web object that the web interface uses.
