app Holds all the code that's specific to this particular application.
app/assets Contains subdirectories for images, stylesheets, and JavaScript files.
app/controllers Holds controllers that should be named like weblogs_controller.rb for automated URL mapping. All controllers should descend from ApplicationController which itself descends from ActionController::Base.
