Simple Admin Tool

Most applications have configuration defined in files. This idea is to automatically wrap a simple admin tool around the configuration file instead of building one from scratch.

So, for eg, a java properties file when input to this tool would automatically generate a website that allows  values in the properties file to be created, display, updated and deleted.

Not in scope: updating in-memory variables with the new values. Although a simple reloadProperties() call can be supported.
