# Cantius

Software freedom empowers sharing.  Let's dedicate our libre software projects
to saints known for fostering sharing!

This Guile web server library is dedicated to St. John Cantius, a polish priest
and university professor of the 15th century.  He became well known for caring
for the poor — stories survived about him giving away his meal and his shoes but
also about his penitents being told to give exceptionally huge alms for penance.

## What does this library do?

Cantius builds upon the `(fibers web server)` to provide a more complete tooling
for building websites.

## Use examples

Please look into the test suite in `tests/guile/`.

## Building & installation

This software has a Guix package definition in Wojtek's [personal
channel](https://git.koszko.org/guix/about).  That can serve you as a point of
reference.

## Copying

The source code of this package is available under CC0 v1.0.  The repository is
kept compliant with the [REUSE](https://reuse.software/) specification, version
3.0.

Note that the uderlying GNU Guile language is covered by the GNU GPL and hence
