Slim / Twig

Hi,

I followed the videos in "building websites with PHP" but I had to modify A LOT (I feel) during the videoes since the teacher is using v.2 and I'm using v.3.

I can make it work just fine using "Slim/php-view" but it started to fail when we got to the .twig templates - then I switched to the the "slim/twig-view" instead but still not working..

// Create Slim app
$app = new \Slim\App();

// Fetch DI Container
$container = $app->getContainer();

// Register Twig View helper
$container['view'] = function ($c) {
    $view = new \Slim\Views\Twig('path/to/templates', [
        'cache' => 'path/to/cache'
    ]);

    // Instantiate and add Slim specific extension
    $basePath = rtrim(str_ireplace('index.php', '', $c['request']->getUri()->getBasePath()), '/');
    $view->addExtension(new Slim\Views\TwigExtension($c['router'], $basePath));

    return $view;
};

// Define named route
$app->get('/hello/{name}', function ($request, $response, $args) {
    return $this->view->render($response, 'profile.html', [
        'name' => $args['name']
    ]);
})->setName('profile');

// Run app
$app->run();

It seems to fail when I change this: $app->get('/hello/{name}' to this $app->get('/'

I have no idea why this happen and I hope someone can help me.
