Scopes

Normally, states of a web application can be stored in the following scopes: application, session, flash, request, and view.

In Xitrum:

• application: xt.Config + DIY
• session: xt.vc.Controller#session
• flash: xt.vc.Controller#flash
• request: xt.vc.Controller#at (like Rails’ @my_var)
• view: xt.vc.Controller#page (saved in a JavaScript variable on page the browser side)
