Spray
=====
2013-03-15 13:11:13 +01:00
The `Spray toolkit <http://spray.io>`_ is built using Akka, and is a minimalistic HTTP/REST layer.
Akka Mist
=========
If you are using Akka Mist (Akka's old HTTP/REST module) with Akka 1.x and wish to upgrade to 2.x
there is now a port of Akka Mist to Akka 2.x. You can find it `here <https://github.com/thenewmotion/akka-http>`_.
Other Alternatives
==================
There are a bunch of other alternatives for using Akka with HTTP/REST. You can find some of them
among the `Community Projects <http://akka.io/community>`_.
