What is it
A simple Pastie.org-like web application inspired by Nick Plante's toopaste project showing how to use RethinkDB as a backend for Sinatra applications.
The app demos the following functionality:
- Creating a new snippet (code highlighting included)
- Retrieving a snippet
- Listing snippets for a language
The app could be easily extended to provide more interesting features like:
- pagination
- snippet expiration
