Intro to Micro-frameworks

J
jsmith92

This document summarizes Jake Smith's presentation on micro-frameworks for PHP given at Dallas PHP on 4/12/2011. It introduces Jake and the topic of micro-frameworks, then provides overviews of several popular PHP micro-frameworks: Minimum, Silex, Limonade, and Slim. For each framework, it lists the website, required PHP version, provides a brief example app, and calls out pros and cons. The goal is to help attendees understand what micro-frameworks are and compare options.
