How to work with models and templates in Silex?

Question

Silex

Hello. There was a need for a small site with the ability to download files using a link like example.con/files/r3Yne, i.е. something like short links. In order not to suffer with routing, I want to use some kind of framework. I am familiar with Laravel, but it seems to me too big for such a site. I think to use Silex, but I did not find examples of working with models and templates in it (maybe I was looking badly). Please send a link to an example of using one and the other, preferably at the same time. And one more thing: is it possible to use controllers like Laravel, i.e. create a controller file and write [email protected] in routes instead of using functions function (){ return 'Hello world'; }

Models can be used directly in controllers for simplicity, the template engine is Twig, routes are set, for example, as follows:
For return, there are components from Symfony: HttpFoundation (Request, Response), FileBag.
