+VRAME
+=====
+
+VRAME is a CMS (content management system) based on Ruby on Rails.
+It is designed to run as a Rails Engine on top of your existing Rails app.
+
+Philosophy
+==========
+
+VRAME does not force you into any kind of predefined, inappropriate structure.
+It allows you to build and use your own information architecture.
+
+In order to integrate VRAME with your app, it provides a few Rails models which fulfill certain tasks:
+
+* Categories act like folders. They include schemas for their documents.
+* Documents act as endpoints. They can be represented as a custom HTML template or as JSON for external APIs.
+* Assets act as storage for files, mainly images. They care about thumbnail creation, video conversion, etc.
+* Collections act as containers for multiple assets.
+
