Web services are a great way to extend your web application, however, adding a web API to an existing web application can be a tedious and time-consuming task. Apify takes certain common patterns found in most web services and abstracts them so that you can quickly write web APIs without having to write too much code.

Some code snippets are included to build a simple REST service - first some examples with user handling then a more fleshed out example of a controller that lets you fetch "post" information as pulled from a model. A screencast has also been posted showing the library in action.
