You've got a Sinatra on your Rails
summary
Builds Sinatra features into Rails and demonstrates they actually work: a single-file Rails app (~27 lines) boots and responds, a rails_natura 75 lines implementation exposes Sinatra-style get/post routes and mounts as a Rack app, middleware logging shows requests traverse at least three middleware stacks (web server, Rails app, controller), and replacing the ActionView context lets templates execute in the controller so controller methods are available in views without declaring helpers — all examples run successfully.
