    Repository
        The repository is in charge of all CRUD operations on a model.
        This abstraction allows the same controller and view to be used with
        any kind of model regardless of how data is persisted or retrieved.

    Controller
        The controller is in charge of interfacing with the user/client when
        it requests a certain URL. It hooks up the :term:`Repository` and
        :term:`View`
        
    View
        The view provdies a representation of model object or a set of controls
        to modify or create one. In Rum, views also handle validation and
        coercion of the data that is sent through the wire.
