In the configuration of your webserver (like Apache) you have to point the DocumentRoot of your site to [slim-install-dir]/public. That way, you won’t have any traces of ‘public’ in your urls.

The .htaccess and index.php in the public-folder take care of setting up the framework so all the routings work.
