Hi, Peter,

are you by chance meaning “REST-powered architecture following a simple  
observer pattern”?

Thank you Jan. That was the link.

Unfortunately, I was barking up the wrong tree.

What I’m looking for is a way to have  
localhost/myprojects/hello/list  
localhost/mylistings/hello/list

both come from the same rails app as the two “applications” are deeply  
interrelated and talk to the same database and very common table set.

Regards,

If you need to share a bunch of code (including views or partials)  
between applications, you might want to look at Engines:
