Can you elaborate on why you don’t wish to or cannot use symfony/translator? Are you missing instructions on using it with Slim?

As an alternative you can use [illuminate/translation](https://github.com/illuminate/translation), which is part of [Laravel](https://laravel.com/). There is an example of using illuminate/translation with Slim instead of Laravel at [https://github.com/mattstauffer/Torch/tree/master/components/translation](https://github.com/mattstauffer/Torch/tree/master/components/translation).

Hello,

There is an example given at [https://helgesverre.com/blog/i18n-slim-framework-translation-twig/](https://helgesverre.com/blog/i18n-slim-framework-translation-twig/). It seems to use Slim Framework 2 instead of Slim Framework 3, though you may be able to adapt it.

I have created a minimal Slim 3 example application that uses Twig for view rendering and [illuminate/translation](https://github.com/illuminate/translation) for translations, which you can find at [https://github.com/llvdl/Slim-Translations-Example](https://github.com/llvdl/Slim-Translations-Example). As demonstrated in the example (see `app/bootstrap.php`), you can register methods to the Twig renderer, in this case the `trans` and `transChoice` methods.
