Hi Samar, Thanks for putting a design together. However it did not make it.
Will this be part of Falcon runtime or a separate webapp deployed as part of falcon? Falcon already uses bootstrap and dust templates. You are free to choose what suits your needs but would be helpful to have a common framework. Thanks!
