**Notes:**

- This is a fork of [klein/klein.php](https://github.com/klein/klein.php)
- This project was upgraded to PHP ^8.1

**klein** is a fast & flexible router for PHP 8.1+

- Flexible regular expression routing (inspired by [Sinatra](http://www.sinatrarb.com/))
- A set of [boilerplate methods](#api) for rapidly building web apps
- Almost no overhead => [2500+ requests/second](https://gist.github.com/878833)

Getting started
---------------

[](#getting-started)

1. PHP 8.1.x is required
2. Install Klein using [Composer](#composer-installation) (recommended) or manually
3. Setup [URL rewriting](https://gist.github.com/874000) so that all requests are handled by **index.php**
4. (Optional) Throw in some [APC](http://pecl.php.net/package/APC) for good measure
