README

strayFw is a PHP framework trying to be modern without following fashion, between full-featured frameworks and micro ones.

Code is free, new-BSD license. So... fork us!

Why? / Why not?

• It's beta software.
• Configuration over convention.
• Use of reflection at runtime as limited as possible.
• Making use of type hinting anywhere possible.
• strayFw follows a small selection of PSR (see below: Development > Technical considerations).
• Contain neither dependency injection nor annotations.
• Data models are defined by a schema in YAML. Migrations are, for the most part, generated by a automated diff between schemas.
• Data models are generated by the CLI ahead of web-server-time/run-time.
• Composer dependencies are minimal.
• DBMS wise, only PostgreSQL is supported.

Requirements

• PHP >= 8.0
• mbstring extension
• For the Locale namespace, intl extension >= 1.0.0
• For the Twig renderer, twig/twig >= 3.0

Get started

Documentation website is underway.
