jester online with Winfy

We have hosted the application jester in order to run this application in our online workstations with Wine or directly.

Quick description about jester:

The sinatra-like web framework for Nim. Jester provides a DSL for quickly creating web applications in Nim. All routes must be inside a routes block. Routes will be executed in the order that they are declared. So be careful when halting. The route path may contain a special pattern or just a static string. Special patterns are almost identical to Sinatra's, the only real difference is the use of @ instead of the : . In this case you might want to make the leading '/' optional too, you can do this by changing the pattern to "/hello/?@name?". This is useful because Jester will not match "/hello" if the leading '/' is not made optional. Route bodies all have an implicit request object. This object is documented in jester.nim and documentation can be generated by executing nim doc jester.nim. It is possible not to use the routes macro and to do the routing yourself. You can do this by writing your own match procedure. Take a look at example2 for an example on how to do this.
