Summary

This tutorial demonstrates how to use Twilio's Voice and SMS APIs with PHP and the Slim web framework to send a text message during a phone call. The application accepts an incoming call, says something to the caller, sends the caller a text message, and handles exceptions for landline callers. The code uses environment variables to securely store authentication information and ngrok to provide a publicly accessible URL for the application.
