Slim

Slim is a lightweight PHP framework for developing web applications and is used by several IndieWeb services and projects.

Features

• HTTP routing to create clean URL slugs and map them to specific functions, including limiting the accepted request methods (GET, POST, etc.)
• Supports PSR-7: HTTP message interface for interacting with the URL, HTTP status, headers, and body
• Supports PSR-11: Container interface for dependency injection
• Does not include services for authentication, database abstraction, template engine, etc. which keeps it lightweight and easy to add in only the components you need

IndieWeb Examples

These IndieWeb sites and services use Slim:

• IndieNews
• indiebookclub
• Barnaby Walters's Micropub Adapter includes an example implementation with Slim
• Teacup
• indiewebify.me: There is currently a project to migrate this to Slim from the no longer maintained Silex framework
• Add yourself here… (see this for more details)
