Check the environment setup

Fire up the server

Create a repo and test it

Create list item transformer and test it

Create a middleware and test it (seeing a pattern?)

Create a controller and view

Viewing a record

Add getItem to repo

Parameter handler

Detail transformer

Controller

View entity form

Transform API to form format

Define the form

Generate the form with state

Render the form

Posting form data

Transform form to api format

Save entity repo function

Handle form post with middleware

Redirect on success

Fail through on failure

Finish things with an add button

One more thing... Acceptance Tests
