Putting it all together

For quick and dirty prototypes, you can get away with anonymous functions and using $app as a service locator, but this method can quickly lead to a messy project.

There are a few key points to developing a maintainable Nice application.

• Avoid closure based routes.
• Register controllers as services.
• Create separate environments for production and development.

Best practices

Early on, using closures for your actions is fast and simple. However, it can be very beneficial to refactor your controller actions into distinct classes and register them as services. Implement a custom route collector to improve the readability and re-usability of your route mapping. Avoid relying on having the service container available to get() services; inject them properly instead.
