Quick overview of `CubicWeb`

============================

`CubicWeb` allows us to develop web applications instances based on

one or more `cubes`.

What we call a `cube` is a model defining the data types and views. 

A `cube` is a reusable component grouped with others cubes in the file

system.

An `instance` refers to a specific installation of one or more `cubes`

 where are grouped configuration files of the final web application.

In this document, we will show you how to create a `cube` and how to use it

in an `instance` for your web application.
