I’m still trying to figure about the best way to illustrate the simplicity and flexibility of the Robotlegs framework. In the meantime however, I thought I’d respond to this cool Swiz video by doing the same thing with Robotlegs – except ending up with a modular (as opposed to a static) app, and throwing in some git/GitHub love as a bonus.

I’m also going to use this site as a portfolio of sorts. When I get the time I’m going to look into building a flash portfolio that uses this site as it’s CMS.
