allyabase is a collection of mini-services, which provide a collection of REST APIs for the building of client applications. If you're unfamiliar with RESTful architecture, the point of it is to be stateless. If you're unfamiliar with what it means to be stateless, start here: The RESTful Library System.
allyabase services are authenticated via the Sessionless Protocol 
. This is done by signing messages with cryptographic keys. As allyabase is RESTful, these messages are often context specific to what is being requested. For a primer on the signing strategy, check out Authz In allyabase.
The Nullary is a repo where we're trying to reproduce the barebones implementations of existing apps utilizing allyabase for their backends.
