9. Micro Micro Framework Framework Minimum functionality Minimum functionality Minumum dependenices Minumum dependenices Minumum configurations Minumum configurations
10. NuGet Driven NuGet Driven Development Development Core is almost “useless” Core is almost “useless” Features by NuGet packages Features by NuGet packages Adopting ruby Gem's approach Adopting ruby Gem's approach
11. Super-duper- Super-duper- happy-path happy-path Kind of philosofy behind the Nancy FX Kind of philosofy behind the Nancy FX “ “It just works”, “It is easy”, “Low friction” It just works”, “It is easy”, “Low friction” You have pleasure and fun You have pleasure and fun
