Any ETA for RC version? about spirit HOT 6 CLOSED

Hey @peek4y thanks for your interest, when all the remaining work in #2 are completed, it will be considered stable and more importantly I'll follow semver versioning more strictly.

Right now, 99% of everything you can do in Express (for example) is available to do now. It's only missing http2 support, http partial (range) support and etags.

But using things like body-parser, express-session, passport etc to add more functionality just like in Express is available right now.

What will probably hold off 1.0.0 release more than anything else is more docs, tutorials, and not missing features or anything like that.

Thanks for the reply @hnry

I know, there are stuff to be done, but, do you have any specific date (or in like a month or so?) in mind for the release?

Can't wait to use this framework 😄

I think around October I'll be finished with a web site, docs, full guides.

In around September, API is probably considered frozen / stable. So people can use now even if they don't mind the lack of guides.

As for the future beyond (no timeline), if there is enough interest, I would like to bring spirit to the browser, and eventually also I would like to see a full featured framework be done based on spirit (but I wouldn't be doing it, it's more helping others who are interested).

Sweet! Can't wait.

I really love the API design so far, great work 👍 I'm definitely moving to spirit, and away from express.

Also, is there anyway to contribute? Any particular module etc.

Contributions are always very much appreciated, which brings up the point that I don't really have a clear way for someone to get into it...

Thanks for bringing that up 😄 , I'll try to get started on a wiki page mentioning how to get started better...

Update: Wiki link https://github.com/spirit-js/spirit/wiki/Contributing , still needs to be filled out, will finish writing it tomorrow.

Sweet! Thanks for the update.
