# Introduction¶ ↑

`Camping` is a small, micro web framework, less than 5k, a little white blood cell in the vein of Ruby. This little book will start with a tutorial which takes about fifteen minutes - by the end you should have a little `Camping` site up. The following chapters will eventually go deeper into how `Camping`, HTTP and Rack work.

(“Eventually”, because these chapters are not written yet. This book is currently a very much work in progress, and we’ll be very grateful if you want to help out.)

If you at any moment need some help or have any questions or comments, we highly recommend opening an issue to ask for help. We’ve got plenty of nice people willing to help. We also have a Discord channel at rubypunks if you’re into that sort of thing.

Enough talk. Ready? Let’s “get started”.
