**ICanBoogie** is a high-performance micro-framework. It is written with speed, flexibility, and lightness in mind. **ICanBoogie** doesn't try to be an all-in-one do-it-all solution but provides the essential features to quickly and easily build web applications. It is easily extensible, and a variety of packages are available to complement its features with [rendering](https://github.com/icanboogie/render), [views](https://github.com/icanboogie/view), [routing](https://github.com/icanboogie/routing), [operations](https://github.com/icanboogie/operation), [internationalization](https://github.com/icanboogie/cldr), [translation](https://github.com/icanboogie/i18n), [ActiveRecord](https://github.com/icanboogie/activerecord), [facets](https://github.com/icanboogie/facets), [mailer](https://github.com/icanboogie/mailer)…

### What does *micro* mean?

[](#what-does-micro-mean)

*"Micro"* means that the core features of ICanBoogie are kept to the essential; the core is simple but greatly extensible. For instance, ICanBoogie won't force an ORM on you, although its [ActiveRecord](https://github.com/ICanBoogie/ActiveRecord) implementation is pretty nice. In the same fashion, its routing mechanisms are quite agnostic and let you use your very own dispatcher if you want to.

### Configuration and conventions

[](#configuration-and-conventions)

ICanBoogie and its components are usually very configurable and come with sensible defaults and a few conventions. Configurations are usually located in "config" folders, while locale messages are usually located in "locale" folders. Components configure themselves thanks to ICanBoogie's [Autoconfig](https://icanboogie.org/docs/4.0/autoconfig) feature, and often don't require more that a line in your `composer.json` file.

Routes
------

[](#routes)

The package provides a controller for the `/api/ping` route, which may be used to renew a session, if one existed in the first place. When the `timer` query parameter is present, the controller gives timing information as well.
