faq

  1. what does zizu stand for? zizu is the chinese pin yin for spider, technically it should be zhizhu, but that's a bit harder to type.
  2. are sinatra haml files compatible with zizu? technically i tried to keep the syntax consistent with sinatra since i'm a big fan, so i mocked _haml_ and _url_ functions.
