Zend Expressive is a PHP microframework that implements the PSR-7 standard for HTTP messages. It uses a middleware approach where reusable code interacts with requests and responses. The document provides an example of creating an application, adding a route, and using middleware like sessions. It also gives resources for learning more about Zend Expressive.

4. It’s the Future! And Now!
• A Microframework
• Implements PSR-7
• Fully functional Middleware stack
• The beginnings of Zend Framework 3
NomadPHP, March 2016 4
6. The Microframework
• Lightweight wrapper around other libraries
• PSR-7 Compliant
• Supports multiple routers
• Supports multiple service locators
• Supports multiple templating systems

<?php
use ZendExpressiveAppFactory;
chdir(dirname(__DIR__));
require 'vendor/autoload.php';
$app = AppFactory::create();
$app->get('/', function ($request, $response, $next) {
$response->getBody()->write('Hello, world!');
return $response;
});
$app->pipeRoutingMiddleware();
$app->pipeDispatchMiddleware();
$app->run();
8. Not just for basic sites
• Provides support for Controllers, Dependency Injection, and
Templating
• Right now feels somewhere between a microframework and full stack
like ZF2 or symfony2

11. What is PSR-7?
• HTTP Message Interfaces
• Provides a consistent interface for HTTP requests and responses
• Allows multiple libraries to read and generate HTTP messages more
easily

15. Built around Middleware
• Middleware interacts with the Request and Response
• Can be used for things like authentication, authorization, session
handling… anything “application”-y
• Almost everything is middleware, even routes
