Reblocks is the fork of the Weblocks web frameworks written by Slava Akhmechet and maintained by Scott L. Burson and Olexiy Zamkoviy.
Some time ago I (Alexander Artemenko) found this old Weblocks and liked its idea of building web application out of widgets. But framework's code was complex and hard to change. Thus I decided to refactor it into a smaller core plus separate libraries implementing more advanced features.
A few years this refactored code lived in the repository https://github.com/40ants/weblocks and it was possible to install it from Ultralisp only. I didn't publish it to Quicklisp to not break sites using old version of the Weblocks. But at January 2022 I decided to rename ASDF system into the "reblocks" to make it installable from the Quicklisp under this name.
Framework's API is still under active development. All significant changes are described in the ChangeLog. You can add ChangeLog page into your RSS reader to be notified on new releases.
These features are present in the oldshool Weblocks version but were removed from the core of the Reblocks. Some of them might be implemented as a separate ASDF systems.
You can read about these tools in the Removed Features section.
To learn, how to use Reblocks to build a simple single-page application, proceed to the Quickstart section.
To learn how a real-world application can be built, inspect Ultralisp's code:
