Fantastic times ahead!

It's an exciting time to be coding in the PHP world just now with the explosive combination of PHP7 and PSR-7 out there in the wilds and available now. Both of these game-changers make a hugely positive impact on the future of PHP as a key language for web development.

PHP7 brings a new level of maturity to the language's object model and a massive boost to performance. PSR-7 brings us a unified set of HTTP messaging interfaces to help us service the request-response cycle. These two, in combination with the awesomeness of Composer and Packagist, make for exciting times ahead for anyone involved in the PHP application development ecosystem.

With this book, we won't be reinventing the wheel. Instead, we'll be trying something new - creating our own micro-framework by leveraging the awesomeness of Composer and Packagist to select precisely the components that we want and wiring them together with framework agnostic code to provide all of the features that you need and none of the bloat that you don't.

Topics covered in the book include:

Configuration and asset management
Routing
Dependency injection
Persistence and storage
Authentication and authorisation
Templating
Caching strategies
Developing our own middleware
API-centric development strategies with RESTfulness in mind
