// This is a simple REST API demo that runs on localhost, port 8080. To start it:
//
//     go run demo.go
//
// Then in a different terminal window:
//
//     go run demo_client.go
//
// You can also check the URLs directly in a browser. For instance:
//
//     http://localhost:8080/users/1

	// can be registered that way.

	userController := rippledemo.NewUserController()
	app.RegisterController("users", userController)

	// Setup the routes. The special patterns `_controller` will automatically match
	// an existing controller, as defined above. Likewise, `_action` will match any
	// existing action.
