This means that an application may or may not share user sessions among the others, configuring its own realm. + +A lisplet contains all the resources (dynamic pages, static files, and services) that your application may need. + +Registering a @code{LISPLET} into the application server is very easy, in fact you only need to instantiate a LISPLET object with its proper +realm defined, and tell the server to register it. +The default realm for a lisplet is @code{"claw"}, if not defined differently during its creation; when two or more lisplets share the same realm, +they will share users sessions too. + +@sp 2 +@smalllisp +(defvar *sample-lisplet* + (make-instance 'lisplet :realm "demo" + :base-path "/demo")) +@end smalllisp +@sp 2 + +When defining the lisplet @code{BASE-PATH} options @value{claw} application server will build a path to that requests that come, will have to match +the application server path plus the lisplet one. + +Let's now add an index page.
