Mezzio is a lightweight PHP microframework for building PSR-15 middleware applications. It provides a minimalist foundation for creating web applications and APIs around PSR-7 HTTP messages.
The framework lets developers choose their preferred router, dependency injection container, template renderer, and other components instead of imposing a fixed application stack.
This is free and open source software.
Key Features
- Build applications using PSR-7 HTTP messages and PSR-15 middleware.
- Middleware-oriented architecture built on laminas-stratigility.
- Supports FastRoute and laminas-router.
- Works with PSR-11 compatible dependency injection containers.
- Retrieve routed middleware directly from the configured container.
- Optional template rendering support.
- Supports Plates, Twig, and Laminas PhpRenderer.
- Skeleton project provides guided installation and configuration.
- Install and manage dependencies with Composer.
- Modular design lets developers select only the components they need.
