Hi Everybody,

I am new to this forum. I have searched for books and other video training materials but haven’t found anything concrete out there. The only thing out there that talks about Expressive is the technical documentation. I have subscribed to “Zend Expressive Essentials” that is yet to come out but then I don’t think it will be absolutely for beginners.

It’s seems Expressive is mostly (only) promoted at the zendcon/phpcon conferences. I might be wrong but here are some quick question.

Why aren’t there readily available learning resources for the both ZF/ZEx?

Lets aggregate every resource here so that new beginners will have a sweet with this incredible framework.
