Takes

Takes is a true object-oriented and immutable Java8 web development framework. Pay attention that UTF-8 encoding is set on the command line. The entire framework relies on your default Java encoding, which is not necessarily UTF-8 by default. To be sure, always set it on the command line with file.encoding Java argument. We decided not to hard-code "UTF-8" in our code mostly because this would be against the entire idea of Java localization, according to which a user always should have a choice of encoding and language selection. We're using Charset.defaultCharset() everywhere in the code. Essential part of Bigger Example is Front interface. It's encapsulates server's back-end and used to start an instance, which will accept requests and return results. FtBasic, which is a basic front, implements that interface.
