The Slim Starter project is a starting point for building an application using the Slim Framework.

This project is a stripped-down version of the Slim Example Project containing only the skeleton, a few example features and a modest design.
It's built to be expanded with additional features to build an application quickly and efficiently.

Included features (tested with PHPUnit):

• Home page
• User list page with users fetched via Ajax after page load
• User read page where values can be edited via contenteditable
• API endpoint: /api/users with frontend example
• Dark / light theme switch

The Slim Starter is built with the following technologies:

• Slim 4 micro-framework
• Dependency Injection - PHP-DI
• Template rendering - PHP-View
• Database migrations - Phinx
• Validation - cakephp/validation
• Logging - Monolog
• Integration testing - PHPUnit
• Query Builder - cakephp/database
• Error handling - slim-error-renderer
• GitHub Actions - Scrutinizer
• Coding standards fixer - PHP CS Fixer
• Static code analysis - PHPStan
