Installing a Lisp webserver and creating a web application with TBNL in 5 minutes

There are lots of possiblities how to run web applications in Lisp: Lots of
frameworks, web servers, HTML geration libraries etc. I've tried UCW, which
was too high-level for me and Araneida, which was too low-level. The ideal
solution for me is TBNL and because I don't know how stable it is, behind a
standard Apache 2 web server with mod_proxy.

There are some nice tutorials out there how to install all the the needed
packages and programs, but everyone who doesn't want to search the needed
information from multiple web pages and trying to make a running system,
I've compiled a startkit with TBNL, which contians all needed packages.
This page shows you how to use it, including a simple sample application:

It's really fun to develop web applications with TBNL and Lisp! With my
first web application you can enter some notes and you'll get a MIDI file
from it:
