Is there a Sinatra style web framework for Erlang?

Question

I programmed in Ruby and Rails for quite a long time, and then I fell in love with the simplicity of the Sinatra framework which allowed me to build one page web application

You may want to take a look at Axiom (disclosure: it's my own project). It is largely inspired by Sinatra, built on top of Cowboy and offers a lot of the features, Sinatra does.

A simple example:

-module(my_app).
-export([start/0, handle/3]).

start() ->
    axiom:start(?MODULE).

handle('GET', [<<"hi">>], _Request) ->
    <<"Hello world!">>.

This handles GET /hi and returns Hello World!.

Take a look at the README for a documentation of it's features.
