Introducing Steward

Steward's goal is to be a helpful framework for building server-side experiences with Dart.

Steward's Parts​

Steward is comprised of five main parts.

  • The CLI
  • The Router
  • The Container
  • Controllers
  • The App

You'll learn more about each of these in their own respective documentation.

Examples​

The best examples for how to use Steward are captured in the test folder. Eventually, we'll refactor this out into tests and examples separately, but for now, they live together :)

Using the Steward framework gives you the following (but not limited to) benefits:

  • A modular system with light Dependency Injection, Routing, Controllers, and more.
  • Automatic dependency injection into controllers when mounting into routers.
  • Easy HTTP request/response management.
  • Config parsing into the DI container at application boot.
  • Templating via the Mustache template specification.
