Tao

[](#français)

Après avoir copié/collé des fichiers dans trois projets web différents, je me suis dit qu'il était temps de mutualiser, versionner et distribuer ces outils.

Tao est une proposition d'architecture pour utiliser un ensemble de bibliothèques reconnues et fréquement utilisées dans mes projets.

Pour voir rapidement comment mettre en oeuvre Tao, je vous conseil vivement de regarder au projet [Kalaho](https://github.com/forxer/kalaho) qui est un exemple d'implémentation de Tao.

Aussi, vous serez sans doute intéressés par le [Tutoriel pas à pas](http://forxer.gitbooks.io/tutoriel-tao/)

After copy/paste files in three different web projects, I thought it was time to share, distribute and versioning tools.

Tao is a proposed architecture to use a set of known and often used in my projects libraries.

To quickly see how to implement Tao, I strongly advice to look [Kalaho](https://github.com/forxer/kalaho) project is an example implementation of Tao.
