there are so many php routers these days that any "fast" claims should probably be accompanied by benchmarks. routing is a fairly uncomplicated task and the speed difference will only become apparent at really high loads. http://c9s.github.io/Pux/ http://c9s.github.io/Pux/ http://auraphp.com/packages/Aura.Router/ http://auraphp.com/packages/Aura.Router/ http://zaphpa.org/ http://zaphpa.org/ http://toroweb.org/ http://toroweb.org/ https://github.com/dannyvankooten/PHP-Router https://github.com/dannyvankooten/PHP-Router https://github.com/symfony/Routing https://github.com/symfony/Routing http://docs.phalconphp.com/en/latest/api/Phalcon_Mvc_Router.html http://docs.phalconphp.com/en/latest/api/Phalcon_Mvc_Router....

This list is missing https://github.com/nikic/FastRoute https://github.com/nikic/FastRoute which is definitely worth looking at.

  I used Epiphany last time I needed something like this. https://github.com/jmathai/epiphany https://github.com/jmathai/epiphany Note that is more than a router, it's a microframework.

    What would you want a 'minimally viable' microframework to include, in terms of functionality? This has come up a couple of times in PHP framework and router threads, and i've been wondering what it would look like (it would probably be even smaller than Slim Framework). I've gotten as far as including Composer and a rather barebones router and telling people to just include whatever else they want but I suspect other people would want more. I find it annoying when frameworks include dependencies I don't want, particularly an ORM or a templating engine, but I understand for a lot of people, that's the point (not having to pick dependencies themselves.)

    Which begs the question, how on earth do you choose one? Edit: as in, which router do you pick and how do you pick one? Choice can lead to decision paralysis.

      Check whats your need, if you are building up much bigger apps go for a fully fledged framework, rest for small apps you can use microrouters , according to your need, each has its own unique features.

        For small apps, you don't need a "router", period. Routing is done by the file system and placing .php files in directories!

        One of the benefits of using a url router is access control - you could have a problem with just letting every file be executable by url, especially if you happen to have a remote file inclusion issue anywhere. With a router you know explicitly what can get invoked and what can't. Although, doing it without a router is probably always going to be faster.

        A late trick I discovered, was that you can configure your php instance to inclued a file with every script. For example the following can be added to .htaccess: php_value auto_prepend_file 'before.php' You can then use that for bootstrapping, front controller and to limit access. Can be a bit clumsy, but it's nicely divorced from simple page controllers.
