Happy New Year! It’s been a great 2008 for Erlang, which we’ll cover in our 2008 Retrospective in another post later this week. For today, it’s a new, simple web framework for Erlang called BeepBeep. Written by Dave Bryson, it uses MochiWeb, which most Erlang Web developers are familiar with, and ErlyDTL, which is an Erlang port of the Python Template Language. Travis Slicegood has a demo application written in BeepBeep grabbing photos from Flickr, and Dave Bryson has a sample Blog Application as well.
The new set of Erlang web frameworks is more proof of the number of ambitious, sharp developers moving to the language is growing.

A friend of mine and I are actually using BeepBeep to create a wiki with a git back end to manage history instead of your typical database model. So far I’ve been VERY happy with BeepBeep, and as far as i can tell the code isn’t terrible.

Hi,
I’ve started to use BeepBeep as a starting point in a new project for a job posting / recruitment site. I’m hoping to have the back end (where it’s a fit) in couchDb.
BeepBeep looks simple, which usually == good
