]]> Hi, how are you? Today we’re going to talk a little bit about Slim Framework. This is a micro-framework for PHP that helps us develop web applications and APIs faster. At its core, Slim is a dispatcher that receives an HTTP request. It then invokes a callback routine and returns an HTTP response. Additionally, it is recommended when an application needs to be prototyped in a short time. In other words, it works very well when we only need php to launch the rest operations against the database requested by a client application. An additional advantage is that its learning curve is very fast. Consequently, it can be learned in a few sessions. Well, in this post we will see how to install Slim Framework in Windows 10.

With that in mind, use the text editor of your choice. In this case, I will use Notepad++. Please add the following text to the file:

<?php
 
require "vendor/autoload.php";

$app = new Slim\App();

$app->get("/",function(){

echo "Hello World";
});

$app->run();

?>
