Silex Skeleton
==============

[](#silex-skeleton)

Boilerplate code to kick start your Silex project.

I like Silex because it's minimal. You don't have a lot of extra junk that you're app doesn't use. I also like Laravel, but my biggest compliant with it is that you have a bunch of additional files/directories for features you may never use.

Enter this skeleton. Inspired by Laravel, yet simple enough to give you only what you need while leaving room for any necessary growth in the future.

Features
--------

### Vagrant

[](#vagrant)

Comes with a simple development environment thanks to [scotchbox](https://box.scotch.io/). If you're not familiar with Vagrant, I recommend visiting [vagrantup.com](http://vargrantup.com). Once everything is installed, simply run

```
vagrant up

```

from CLI and you now have a fully functional development environment at

### Views

[](#views)

Again, I'm a big fan of **KISS** - **K**eep **I**t **S**imple **S**tupid.

I don't see the need of a heavy template engine when PHP has native templating abilities. This skeleton comes prepackaged with [cesarv/views](https://github.com/cesar-v/views), but it's pretty easy to change the view provider if need be.

Happy coding!
