How to setup a standalone project without Symfony?

[sebastianstucke87]

Hello,

for educational purposes, I would like to setup a standalone project without Symfony. According to the documentation:

• "API Platform is also designed as a set of independent and reusable components. (...)"
• "It can be used as a standalone or with the Symfony framework (...)"

For example, the Symfony router can be easily used without the Symfony framework: https://github.com/symfony/routing#getting-started

Now I'm wondering on how to do this with "api-platform/core", since all documentation examples seem to be for a Symfony project with Symfony (yaml-) configuration. Did I missunderstand the meaning of "standalone"?

You can find the documentation to use API Platform without Symfony here: https://api-platform.com/docs/core/bootstrap/
