moloapp/example

Living example

Big living example project proving every MoloApp feature end to end. Plan: plans/10-workflow-example.md, section 6.4.

Run it:

make -f example/example.mk example
./build/example/living-server 8080

Open http://127.0.0.1:8080/ and click through the matrix. Narrow the window to 360px: the top nav collapses into a dropdown menu.

Run the suite (37 route-level integration tests, real stack, no mocks):

make -f example/example.mk example-test

Framework status

The framework is skeletal: example/fw/ holds a compiling skeleton of the public API (request, response hierarchy, router, application, views, validation, forms, negotiation, templates, middleware, DI-shaped services, errors, cookies, static, TLS stub, KV, cache, pubsub, events, metrics, telemetry, sessions, auth, ORM stub, uploads, WebDAV, supervisor, tasks, replication, REST client, OpenAPI, AI harness sample, release pipeline, test client, loopback server). Gaps are marked in example/SPEC.md and in each header. As siblings 01 through 09 land, this app re-binds to the real namespaces route by route; the URLs, tests, and matrix stay stable.

Coverage matrix

Feature -> route -> test file -> plan link. One row per feature; CI fails on a missing row.
