Silex is a PHP micro-framework to develop websites based on Symfony components:

<?php

require_once __DIR__.'/../vendor/autoload.php';

$app = new Silex\Application();

$app->get('/hello/{name}', function ($name) use ($app) {
  return 'Hello '.$app->escape($name);
});

$app->run();

Silex works with PHP 5.3.9 or later.

The recommended way to install Silex is through Composer:

composer require silex/silex "~1.3"

Alternatively, you can download the silex.zip file and extract it.

Read the documentation for more information and changelog for upgrading information.

To run the test suite, you need Composer and PHPUnit:

$ composer install
$ phpunit
