Introduction
------------

[](#introduction)

Deano is a web microframework written in PHP. It is heavily inspired by the Sinatra web microframework written in Ruby. Its definition of routes uses a similar, but PHP-style syntax. It however does not come with a templating engine, as there are many of those already in existence where are easily integrated with Deano.
