Retwis-Lift is a re-implementation of Retwis by @antirez.

The original Retwis was written in PHP. Retwis-lift is written in Scala using the Lift framework.

Technologies used

Database: Redis (http://redis.io) Database driver: Jedis (http://github.com/xetorthio/jedis) Web framework: Lift (http://liftweb.net) Language: Scala (http://www.scala-lang.org/)

Getting started

0. Set a Redis DB on your localhost
1. Clone the repository
2. At the repository root, type './sbt'
3. Type 'update'
4. Type 'jetty-run'
5. Open a browser and go to http://localhost:8080

This is my first ever Lift app, first Scala project, and my first time using Redis. I'm sure there are design patterns and conventions I misused or didn't use. Please send me feedback, suggestions, or just improve the code and send it to me!

Thanks,

Raphael
