“These are exciting times for Falcon’s language development. New
and interesting features are being implemented, tested and rolled
out at break neck speeds! Not only are core language features being
released, but so are a multitude of feathers (Falcon
libraries/modules). One such module release is V1.0 Web Oriented
Programming Interface (WOPI). It is the intent of this article to
cover the basic features/functionalities of WOPI through common web
oriented functional examples.

“WOPI is an abstraction layer between a web server and the
falcon scripts that serves up a web page. At a very high level I
like to think of it as the ODBC of web servers.”
