SYNOPSIS

use Bailador;

get '/' => sub {
    "Hello World";
}

baile();

DESCRIPTION

Bailador is a light-weight route-based web application framework for Perl 6. Talk to the developers at https://perl6-bailador.slack.com/

INSTALLATION

Once you have Rakudo Star installed open a terminal (or command line on Windows) and type:

$ zef update
$ zef install Bailador

This should download and install Bailador.

You can test your installation, and see what is your Bailador installed version with the following command:

$ bailador version

NB: If you are using Rakudobrew you may need to run the following command to make bailador available in your terminal:

$ rakudobrew rehash

GETTING STARTED

At the command prompt, create a new Bailador application:

$ bailador new App-Name

Then, change directory to App-Name and start the web server:

$ bailador watch bin/app.pl6

That's it! Using a browser, go to http://localhost:3000. Isn't it wonderful?

You can now edit the files and Bailador reloads the application while you're developing.
