+  h2 About
+
+  p This application will give you a set of Collection+JSON resources
+    | useful for creating 
+    a(href='http://amundsen.com/media-types/collection/') Collection+JSON
+    | -related tools. It is developed in combination with the 
+    a(href='http://trygvis.dyndns.org/~trygvis/git/2012/06/collection+json-explorer.git') Collection+JSON Explorer
+    | .
+
+  h3 Explore
+
+  p To explore the data, queries and templates available you can either use the 
+    a(href='http://collection-json-explorer.herokuapp.com') online explorer
+    | , command line tools like curl or wget or any other HTTP client.
+
+  p Note that unless you explicitly request 
+    code text/html
+    | you will be served 
+    code application/vnd.collection+json
+    | .
+
+  h4 Exploring with curl
+
+  p These examples use a Python tool to format the json as the server serves
+    | compacted JSON. If you want to see the headers served, add 
+    code -D /dev/stderr
+    |  and you'll get the headers too.
+
+  p Start by fetching the root document:
+  
+  pre.
+    $ curl -s http://employee.herokuapp.com/ | python -mjson.tool
+    {
+        "collection": {
+            "items": [], 
+            "links": [
+                {
+                    "href": "http://employee.herokuapp.com/department/", 
+                    "prompt": "Department List", 
+                    "rel": "departments"
+                }, 
+                {
+                    "href": "http://employee.herokuapp.com/employee/", 
+                    "prompt": "Employee List", 
+                    "rel": "employees"
+                }
+            ],

+            "templates": [], 
+            "version": "1.0"
+        }
+    }
+
+  p This will show all available root resources. Navigate to the department list:
+
+  pre.
+    $ curl -s http://employee.herokuapp.com/department/ | python -mjson.tool
+    {
+      "collection": {
