Ludens is a lightweight PHP framework built for developers who want simplicity without sacrificing structure.

Philosophy
----------

[](#philosophy)

- **Pure model objects** — no framework dependencies, no annotations, just PHP
- **Convention over configuration** — sensible defaults, override only what you need
- **Explicit over magic** — you always know what is happening and why

Requirements
------------

[](#requirements)

- PHP 8.2+
- Composer

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

```
composer create-project devtrope/ludens my-project
cd my-project
cp .env.example .env
```

License
-------

[](#license)

Ludens is open-source software licensed under the [MIT license](LICENSE.md).
