Why NeoPHP

Everything you need, nothing you don't

Ultra modular

Components, packages and processes are independent: the kernel only loads the providers you use.

Zero dependency

Only PHP 8.2. No vendor tree to audit: YAML, Markdown, ORM or Tailwind are written in NeoPHP itself.

Attributes everywhere

Routes, listeners, commands, security and autowiring are declared next to the code with PHP attributes.

Generators

make:entity, make:form, make:auth and friends ask what they need and write clean code for you.

Batteries included

ORM with migrations, forms, validation, security, mailer, translations and a debug toolbar, out of the box.

Modern front-end

Twig or PHP templates, an asset pipeline and Tailwind CSS without Node.js.

Simple by design

A route, a controller, a template.

Routes are attributes, services are autowired and templates are Twig or plain PHP. Read it once, you know how it works.

src/Controller/HelloController.php

class HelloController extends AbstractController
{
    #[Route('/hello/{name}', name: 'hello')]
    public function index(string $name): Response
    {
        return $this->render('hello.html.twig', ['name' => $name]);
    }
}

templates/hello.html.twig

{% extends 'base.html.twig' %}

{% block body %}
    <h1>Hello {{ name }}!</h1>
{% endblock %}
