| The next command will launch the Mezzio Skeleton Installer. | ||
| We will go through the installation process together, using the recommended settings. | ||
| We will opt primarily for the Laminas-supported options to maintain consistency. |

What is meant by this? Using components of Laminas?

It means the default options in the installer: laminas-servicemanager instead of the rest of DI libraries, fastroute , and twig

The default option for template engine is n (none) which raises the question of why Twig is chosen. (The tutorial does not explain this.)

I am in doubt about that.
Indeed none is the default option, but we should consider using Twig in this series of tutorials in order to provide some practical value for the developers.
Or we should have one article about all optional templates which can be used.
I really do not think that somebody use no template engine in a real life application. Eventually only if they need only CLI I/O

I expanded the section for choosing the templating engine.

This is the opengraph for this article |
| - `Twig` is reliable, actively-developed and well-known in the PHP community. | ||
| - `laminas-view` is related to Laminas MVC. | ||

| The default option for this step doesn't install any templating engine, but we only recommend this option if you want to build a CLI or API. |

You might use Laminas components for CLI applications, but Mezzio, not so much :)

Well, it's the idea that you do not need a template engine for CLI.
The article is about Mezzio :-)

I mean, why would you use the Mezzio skeleton to scaffold out a CLI app? The CLI bit needs removing so it's just:
The default option for this step doesn't install any templating engine which is only relevant if you are building an API.

I understand why you've chosen twig - but perhaps extrapolate on the reasons not to eat our own dog-food and use laminas-view. For example: "… laminas-view is a good choice if you're familiar with Laminas-MVC, but we've approached this article on the assumption that more people will have prior experience of Twig"
laminas-view works perfectly well with with Mezzio, even though it does have a long history of being coupled to the MVC framework.

we have in plan an article dedicated to all template engines options in mezzio.
Definitely i think it is a subjective choice between them
Created a new article for installing Mezzio Skeleton.
