Current version is 1.1.0 See the Full Documentation http://rocky.codingphase.com/

I built this as an experiment to put together the best libraries to build a modern yet simple stack.

I chose to base my stack

• React - Solid front end framework backed by Facebook

• Crystal - A powerful new language with syntax similar to ruby but is as fast as "C"

• Kemal - Super light weight http framework made by Serdar Doğruyol

• Yarn - The fastest package manager also made by Facebook
