Bihan
=====

[](#bihan)

Bihan means "small" in [Breton language](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Breton_language). It started as a personnal project to improve my knowledge on building framework using Symfony. So I decided to use main HTTP [Symfony](https://github.com/symfony) components, [Pimple](https://github.com/silexphp/Pimple) dependencies container and [fast-route](https://github.com/nikic/FastRoute) router to implement a fast and lightweight framework. Bihan is very inspired from [Silex](https://github.com/silexphp/Silex) and is perfect to implement small rest API.

I recommend you to read the very good article about fast-route and [fast request routing using regular expressions](https://www.npopov.com/2014/02/18/Fast-request-routing-using-regular-expressions.html).
