This package provides a bare-bones middleware framework that implements the different PSR standards and takes advantage of the Simply Router and Container to create a coherent whole.

The application framework takes advantage of the [PSR-7 HTTP Message Interface](https://www.php-fig.org/psr/psr-7), [PSR-11 Container Interface](https://www.php-fig.org/psr/psr-11), [PSR-15 HTTP Handlers](https://www.php-fig.org/psr/psr-15) and [PSR-17 HTTP Factories](https://www.php-fig.org/psr/psr-17) standards in order to create an interoperable framework based on the community best practices and standards.

NOTE: This package is part of a framework that is still highly experimental in nature. Stable api or proper documentation are not to be expected until the framework has been tested in practice.
