Fusebox Core Concepts

• Fusebox core concepts
• all software actions occur in response to
  requests made of the fusebox
• code is encapsulated in circuits
• circuits are made to be as independent of each
  other as possible (new requests return to the
  fusebox rather than being routed directly to
  another circuit)
• fuses are based on "pipes and filters" where the
  output of one file becomes the input of the
  other, allowing for ease of reuse

• XML configuration files provide language
  independence
• multiple fuseactions in a single HTTP request
  allows for more flexible design patterns such as
  MVC

• layout files lose their minority statussimply
  another fuse
