This is a PoC experiment, demonstrating the power of emacs-web-server.

The goal is not to implement something fancy, but:

1. Banish Javascript
2. Write an emacs package, get a webapp for free

The first item is quite achievable. Regarding the second, it would be
ideal to have a package that transforms emacs packages to webapps.

So far in this experiment we have implemented a webapp only.

Make sure =emacs-web-server= is available. It can be installed from
the GNU ELPA:

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(package-install 'web-server)
#+end_src

Require and start the server:

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(require 'bom)
(bom-start)
#+end_src

The weather forecast is available at <http://localhost:9000>.

** Serve as purely a webapp
