+
+ <h3 id="live-sites">Is anyone using Snap in production?</h3>
+
+ <p>Yes! Here is a list of sites that we know of that use Snap. Let us
+ know if you know of others</p>
+
+ <ul>
+ <li><a href="http://snapframework.com";>http://snapframework.com</a>
(this site)</li>
+ <li><a href="http://darcsden.com";>http://darcsden.com</a></li>
+ </ul>
+
+ <h3 id="high-level">Where's the high-level functionality?</h3>
+
+ <p>Our goal is for Snap to be a very fast, stable, <em>high-level</em> web
+ framework at or above the same level of abstraction as frameworks like Ruby
+ on Rails, Django, etc. During early planning and development we concluded
+ that to accomplish this goal we needed to build our own web server and API
+ to interface with it. This was an unanticipated detour, and we will resume
+ working on higher-level functionality when the core has stabilized.</p>
+
+ <h3 id="install">Why can't I install Snap?</h3>
+
+ <p>First, make sure you have "$HOME/.cabal/bin" at the beginning of your
+ path.</p>
+
+ <p>You may have an old version of Cabal. Try running "<code>cabal update
+ && cabal install Cabal</code>". After this, "<code>cabal
+ --version</code>" should say that you're using version 1.8.0.4 of the
+ Cabal library or higher. After you do this try installing Snap again.</p>
+
+ <p>If that didn't work, and you're getting an error that mentions
+ monads-fd or transformers, try running "<code>cabal install --reinstall
+ monads-fd</code>" (or transformers).</p>
+
+ <h3 id="help">How can I help?</h3>
+
+ <h5>Use Snap to build real websites.</h5>
+
+ <p>This is perhaps the best way to help. Let us know what issues you
+ encounter and work on fixing the ones you care about most. If you are
+ unable to fix a problem, you can still help by writing an automated test
+ case that detects the problem.</p>
+
+ <h5>Develop automated memory leak and performance regression testing.</h5>
+
+ <p>Currently our top priority is working out correctness and performance
+ issues in the server. We have a CI build server that automatically runs
+ all our test cases, but we don't have an automated system to test for
+ performance and memory leaks. This would be a very helpful addition.</p>
+
+ <h5>Improve test cases and code coverage.</h5>
+
+ <p>While not an exotic task, expanding our test suite can contribute
+ significantly to the stability of the project.</p>
+
+ <h5>Improve documentation and tutorials.</h5>
+
+ <p>It's easy for documentation to get out of date. We try to keep it
+ up-to-date, but we can always use more eyes to catch things that slip
+ through the cracks.</p>
