coherence.backends.models (package)
-----------------------------------

If you plan to write a custom backend this classes should make easier to
develop it:

.. toctree::

    backends/models/items
    backends/models/containers
    backends/models/stores

If you want to see some more examples about how to apply those
classes you can check those backends:

    - :ref:`LolcatsStore <coherence.backends.lolcats>`
    - :ref:`TedStorage <coherence.backends.ted>`
