README

This is an unofficial fork of Laravel Lumen created specifically to maintain parity with the core Laravel framework versions.

Installing Lumen

Lumen utilizes Composer to manage its dependencies. So, before using Lumen, make sure you have Composer installed on your machine.

Install Lumen by issuing the Composer create-project command in your terminal:

composer create-project --prefer-dist prettyyellowdog/lumen blog

Serving Your Application

To serve your project locally, you may use the Laravel Homestead virtual machine, Laravel Valet, or the built-in PHP development server:

composer run start

This is the equivalent to

php -S 0.0.0.0:8888 -t public

Issues

Please report issues here.

Lumen PHP Framework

Laravel Lumen is a stunningly fast PHP micro-framework for building web applications with expressive, elegant syntax. We believe development must be an enjoyable, creative experience to be truly fulfilling. Lumen attempts to take the pain out of development by easing common tasks used in the majority of web projects, such as routing, database abstraction, queueing, and caching.

Note: In the years since releasing Lumen, PHP has made a variety of wonderful performance improvements. For this reason, along with the availability of Laravel Octane, we no longer recommend that you begin new projects with Lumen. Instead, we recommend always beginning new projects with Laravel.

Official Documentation

Documentation for the framework can be found on the Lumen website.
