 purpleApi
 =========
 
-Purple API client/server sample
+Purple API is an exercise project I made to train myself on the SOA approach in the Web development world 
+and how we can implement this in a maintainable way.
+
+It's composed in 2 separate parts.
+
+Server part
+===========
+An SOA oriented API Backend :
+- Api structure made from scratch and partially inspired from the WebApi approach of ASP.NET MVC
+- An homemade IOC container to allow easy coupling of the code modules and code reuse from the different classes
+- An homemade persistence layer based on text files. We could use, instead of this, an external tool like memcached.
+
+Client Part
+===========
+A Single Page Application based on :
+- KnockoutJS for the MVVM models binding and sync
+- IOC by using requireJs
+- A separation of concern by using "namespaces" for each type of data treated
+- Twitter bootstrap / JqueryUI for the UI
+- Sammy.js for the SPA page navigation
+
