## Intent
|
|
Introduce a common handler for all requests for a web site. This

|
way we can encapsulate common functionality such as security,
|
|
internationalization, routing and logging in a single place.

## Applicability
|
|
Use the Front Controller pattern when

|
|
* you want to implements dynamic request handling i.e. change routing without modifying code
|
|
* make web server configuration portable, you only need to register the handler web server specific way
