Core Concepts

There are three key concepts that underpin everything in RapidREST. Understanding these concepts will help make the rest of the framework predictable rather than "magic":

1. Auto-Discovery - how every class you export under src/ ends up registered and injectable, with no central registration file.
2. Dependency Injection - details how dependencies are injected during object construction and explains the object life-cycle.
3. Configuration - the nconf-based config system and its colon-separated key paths, which almost everything else in the framework reads from.
