README

Tuum/Respond is a framework agnostic PHP module to help construct a PSR-7 response object, and more.

It provides MVC's "View" functionality as shown in the figure below.

overview of Tuum/Respond

In this figure, the Controller part is managed by the framework and Tuum/Respond composes a respond object for views (using template), error pages, and redirects.

$app->add('/',
    function (ServerRequestInterface $request, ResponseInterface $response) use ($responder) {
        return $responder->view($request, $response)
            ->setSuccess('welcome!')
            ->render('index');
    });
