What are Microframeworks for PHP?
Microframeworks are lightweight web application frameworks that provide basic functionality such as routing, request and response handling, templating and input validation. They typically do not include any libraries or helpers for common tasks, leaving developers with the freedom to choose their own libraries for such functions. Microframeworks are designed for applications that require minimal setup and fast development cycles, although they may also be suitable for larger applications. They offer an alternative to full-stack frameworks. Compare and read user reviews of the best Microframeworks for PHP currently available using the table below. This list is updated regularly.

Slim Framework
Slim Framework
Slim is an ideal tool to create APIs that consume, repurpose, or publish data. Slim is also a great tool for rapid prototyping. Heck, you can even build full-featured web applications with user interfaces. More importantly, Slim is super fast and has very little code. You don’t always need a kitchen-sink solution like Symfony or Laravel. These are great tools, for sure. But they are often overkill. Instead, Slim provides only a minimal set of tools that do what you need and nothing else. First, you need a web server like Nginx or Apache. A Slim app contains routes that respond to specific HTTP requests. Each route invokes a callback and returns an HTTP response. To get started, you first instantiate and configure the Slim application. Next, you define your application routes.
