An example CMS built using the Drop microframework

Drop Framework Example

This repository can be used as a starting point for developing an application using the Drop Micro-Framework by Joe Hallenbeck.

An example of this repository in action can be found at dropframework-example.kynda.net

Namely: This project loads the DropFramework and provides all the necessary configuration options in the locations that the framework expects. Furthermore, it demonstrates a simple controller interacting with a service model and domain model to load a series of blog posts from a database and display them as a complete HTML document.

For more information see the the link to the main framework repository.
