Purpose
=======

What is the APF?
================

[](#what-is-the-apf)

The Adventure PHP Framework ([adventure-php-framework.org](https://adventure-php-framework.org/en "adventure-php-framework.org")) understands itself as a utility to implement object oriented and generic PHP web applications. It supports the developer to create programs in compliance with approved software design pattern and the code base already has answers to many day-2-day problems. The framework cannot be described as an application, that only has to be configured, but rather as a technical basis and design guide for the design of software.
