+Package app contains data structures that provide basic data storage
+functionality and act as a bridge between the ABCI interface and the internal
+SDK representations.
 
-StoreApp handles creating a datastore or loading an existing one
-from disk, provides helpers to use in the transaction workflow
-(check/deliver/commit), and provides bindings to the ABCI interface
-for functionality such as handshaking with tendermint on restart,
-querying the data store, and handling begin/end block and commit messages.
-It does not handle CheckTx or DeliverTx, or have any logic for modifying
-the state, and is quite generic if you don't wish to use the standard Handlers.
-
-BaseApp embeds StoreApp and extends it for the standard sdk usecase, where
-we dispatch all CheckTx/DeliverTx messages to a handler (which may contain
-decorators and a router to multiple modules), and supports a Ticker which
-is called every BeginBlock.
+BaseApp has no state except the MultiStore you provide upon init.  You must
+also provide a Handler and a TxParser.
