Microframe works are libraries that helps you in building applications that are concise, extensible and testable.

For example Silex is one micro-framework that has the best support of modern PHP programming techniques, is developed in sync with Symfony2, unit-tested, well documented and provides possibility to introduce 3rd party libraries through a very good DI-container mechanism.

In my opinion this framework is best for anything that does not need extensive caching, user-managing, heavy database interaction or security.
