Snap is a simple and fast web development framework and server written in
Haskell. For more information or to download the latest version, you can
visit the Snap project website at http://snapframework.com/.

This library contains the core definitions and types for the Snap framework,
including:

1. Primitive types and functions for HTTP (requests, responses,
   cookies, post/query parameters, etc):
2. A monad for programming web handlers called "Snap", which allows:

* Stateful access to the HTTP request and response objects
* Monadic failure (i.e. MonadPlus/Alternative instances) for declining to
  handle requests and chaining handlers together
* Early termination of the computation if you know early what you want to
  return and want to prevent further monadic processing

Quick start: The Snap monad and HTTP definitions are in Snap.Core.
