You might want to debug what's happening behind the scenes.
In Erlang, it's extremely easy to trace functions, so that you can check
which function has been called, when, and what it's returning.

In your case, you might be interested in the function:
e_dispatcher:dispatch/1

Tracing functions will help you (a lot!) in understanding how the whole
Erlang Web framework works.

For more information on how to trace Erlang functions, have a look to
this quick reference:
