  class Authorizer

    # The base Authorizer class, from which all the authorizers in an app will
    # descend. Provides the authorizer with both class and instance methods
    # like `updatable_by?(user)`.
    # Exactly which methods get defined is determined from `config.abilities`;
    # the class is evaluated after any user-supplied config block is run
    # in order to make that possible.
