[erlang-questions] Which technology I should choose?

[Lee Sylvester]

Hey Loïc,

I meant nothing by it.  I had to build a Socket.IO compatible server recently, and Cowboy was my first choice.  I simply find WebMachine gets the job done when that job is a super simple task and I need full REST without thinking too hard about it.

I have a weak choice for yaws for the server at the time.

A good documentation is required too.
