Fast Route VS Composer

Adding https://github.com/nikic/FastRoute for comparison

Just to show an alternative: https://github.com/nikic/FastRoute

How hard did you look? There are plenty out there. FastRoute, Phroute, based on FastRoute, with basic middleware, League/Route - routing with middleware, using FastRoute, PSR 7 & 15, Slim Framework, at it's core, it like League/Route, etc. None of these require a full framework to use.

I'd recommend looking at the routers for popular, simpler frameworks (both documentation and code) such as Slim. Also look at FastRoute which is the basis for most modern routers.

Using a router library like FastRoute or Phroute to show the example

I've just recently started using https://github.com/nikic/FastRoute and it seems to work pretty well

I think a more popular one like https://github.com/nikic/FastRoute would benefit someone learning more than Aura.

The basics is the RouteCollection - https://github.com/nikic/FastRoute/blob/master/src/RouteCollector.php

Nikita Popov, author of FastRoute wrote a pretty good and complete article about how it works.

Delving into PHP frameworks like Laravel or Symfony is like building a skyscraper, with Composer acting as your "construction foreman," guiding you step by step to ensure your code is robust and awe-inspiring. This stage involves getting familiar with popular PHP frameworks such as Laravel, Symfony, CodeIgniter, etc., and utilizing the functionalities provided by these frameworks to rapidly develop efficient, maintainable web applications. Tools to consider: Laravel, Composer.

In our example application we will manage dependencies via Composer.

Our project template is equipped with Composer and an autoload class pre-installed. This inclusion in the repository streamlines the setup process, particularly for this access-token course. Composer, a dependency manager for PHP, simplifies the integration of external libraries and ensures efficient autoloading of classes. It plays a pivotal role in managing project dependencies, enabling developers to focus more on implementation rather than manual library management. If you're unfamiliar with Composer or need guidance on its installation, refer to the following link for detailed instructions: [https://getcomposer.org/] and this article for more details on the setup of the packages in this project.

On you Jenkins server, install PHP, its dependencies and Composer tool (Feel free to do this manually at first, then update your Ansible accordingly later)

Composer is a PHP package manager and it will allow us to use many out-of-the-box packages and features such as HTTP requests, logging, and templates and database management. I use it to develop large, complex applications.
