Scorched

Light-weight, unopinionated Ruby web framework built on Rack, with controllers implemented as classes.

Scorched is a Ruby web framework that the homepage describes as generic, unopinionated and light-weight. It is installed as a gem, and the README says it makes no attempt to hide Rack. The homepage calls it an evolutionary enhancement of Sinatra, and the documentation covers controllers, routing, filters, middleware and views.

Views render through Tilt, so any engine Tilt recognizes, such as ERB or Haml, can be used. Tom Wardrop is named in the license as the copyright holder.
