Nitrogen
Erlang web framework for building interactive, Ajax-rich web applications.
nitrogenproject.comrepositorydocs
Nitrogen is a web framework for Erlang, built on a pure Erlang technology stack, for interactive web applications. Pages and the events users trigger are handled in server-side Erlang code over an event-driven model, with websockets and an ajax fallback. The getting started guide builds a starter application from source with make, and the starter runs on Inets, Erlang’s built-in HTTP server. The downloads page offers self-contained packages for each platform, with a choice of Cowboy, Inets, Mochiweb, Webmachine or Yaws as the web server. A Nitrogen application is started, stopped and attached to as a detached console.
