==================

[](#lean-php-framework)

Lean PHP Framework is a micro framework PHP (~40KB). Modern frameworks are powerfull but so much complicated, the mostly of resources you never gonna use, some functionality sounds good but if you don't really need it's a only waste of time. With Lean you can construct fast e lightweight softwares, with follows resources:

- Structure MVC, REST or both;
- Requests;
- Routes (automatic or custom);
- Namespaces;
- Class autoload;
- PHP code hidden;
- Basic template engine;
- Date and Time manipulation;
- Easy configuration;

### Requirement

[](#requirement)

PHP 5.3+

### Basic structure

[](#basic-structure)

```
-- rootdir
    -- app
        -- main (module)
            -- controllers
                -- HomeController.php
            -- models
            -- views
                -- home
                    -- index.phtml
        -- Bootstrap.php
        -- Routes.php
    -- public_html
        -- css
        -- js
        -- img
        -- index.php
        -- .htaccess
    -- vendor
        -- composer
        -- lean
        -- autoload.php
```

Create into your rootdir teh follows directories:

- `app`: You will write all your application php into app directory (controllers, models, views and configs), this way your application not stay exposed.
- `public_html`: Into public\_html directory we have only **index.php** as file .php. You can put all yours public files, like css, javascripts, images, fonts, etc.
- `vendor`: Composer will create it and copy our lib to lean directory.
