On the Zend Framework blog today project lead Matthew Weier O'Phinney has posted an announcement about the latest (alpha) release of the Zend Expressive framework: Zend Expressive 3 Alpha 3.

Today, we pushed the final changes and fixes that culminated in the Expressive Installer and Skeleton 3.0.0alpha3 release!

The alpha releases have a ton of great features; keep reading to find out more!

The post then walks you through the installation process (slightly different since it's an alpha) and shows the creation of a sample middleware via the command line tooling. The tutorial then shows the creation of a request handler and how to configure it in the router. The post ends with a look ahead it what's next for the framework on its roadmap including several features that need completion before v3 of Zend Expressive can be called complete.
