=head2 Introduction

Enzyme came about when I created Scaffolding CRUD code for some
tables. There was much duplication, both in Controllers and in
templates.

So I refactored.

The templates duplication resulted in
L<Catalyst::View::TT::ControllerLocal>, which allows you to override
templates or template fragments by placing them in a directory
specific to the Controller.

The Controller code duplication resulted in the class
L<Catalyst::Enzyme::CRUD::Controller>. This has since grown
significantly and now includes more robust CRUD behaviour, uniform
presentation of status and messages to the user.

=head2 Create TT View

    script\bookshelf_create.pl view TT Enzyme::TT
    ... created files ...

This creates a special Enzyme TT View, standard templates in
./root/base/, as well as a css (named after your application) file in
./root/static/css/ .

The Enzyme TT View allows for overloading template fragments based on
the Controller (e.g. BookShelf::Controller::Book). It also provides a few
utility methods for the templates.

You'll probably want to modify the templates and the style sheet later
on to alter the global look of the application.

You'll probably want to copy some standard templates from
C<./root/base/> to e.g. <./root/book/) and modify them in order to
alter the web pages for only that part of the application.
