What is it? |

=========== |

Typo is a weblog system written in Ruby using Ruby on Rails. Weblogs are cool, |
|---|
| 5 |
weblogs are "in" and everyone who writes code has an different opinion on how |
|---|
| 6 |
a weblog should be written. Typo is our take on it. Typo is designed to be |
|---|
| 7 |
usable by programmers and non-programmers, while being easy for programmers to |
|---|
| 8 |
extend. |

Requirements |
|---|
| 11 |
============ |
|---|
| 12 |
|
|---|
| 13 |
Currently you need all of those things to get typo to run: |
|---|
| 14 |
|
|---|
| 15 |
* Ruby 1.8.6 or higher |
|---|
| 16 |
* Rails 2.0.2 or higher |
|---|
| 17 |
* A database. Typo supports MySQL, PostgreSQL, and SQLite. |
|---|
| 18 |
* Ruby drivers for your database. |
|---|
| 19 |
* For best performance, you should have a web server running either |
|---|
| 20 |
Apache or Lighttpd along with FastCGI, although these aren't |
|---|
| 21 |
strictly required--you can use Ruby's built-in web server for |
|---|
| 22 |
low-volume testing. |
|---|
| 23 |
* rspec, rcov and ruby-debug are necessary to run the test suit. |
