title: How to redirect index.php to a subfolder's file w/wo using .htaccess?
body: <p>My directory looks like:</p>
  
  <pre><code>app
    |---- index.php
    |
    |---- Views
            |---- home.php
            |---- include.php
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I want user to get redirected to <code>home.php</code> whenever they come to <code>app</code> directory and still want to show the url as <code>www.example.com/app</code>.
  Also, is this possible to accomplish this with just php without having to touch <code>.htaccess</code> file. I would like to distribute the app on different servers. Can the <code>.htaccess</code> be located within the <code>app</code> directory ?</p>
