Introduction
Ideas for a new PHP framework.
Reasons
There are lots of frameworks out there - why create another one?
Selling points of this framework:
- Welcoming community
- No overbearing '(benevolent) dictator for life' - want to move to a group model as soon as possible, either as a separate foundation or under an existing umbrella
- Tutorial documentation as well as API references
- Minimal overhead - mostly a collection of existing modules with a bit of glue to hold them together
- Convention over configuration - do not allow people to change things
- Support whichever version of PHP is in latest Ubuntu LTS, and previous version if latest was released less than 6 months ago
Features
Framework should support the following features:
- Front controller with routing
- Templates (Twig)
- Ship with sensible
.gitignore - Installable with
composer create-project
