It's inspired by the Laravel framework, without all the bells and whistles. At its core is a robust and powerful PSR-11 compatible dependency container. Aside from Pest for testing and Pint for formatting it requires no external dependencies and relies strictly on its own built-in, internal libraries. > > The aim is to make building a PHP 8 powered application a breeze, by giving a construct for the beginning stages of application development. Provided is an application entrypoint interface, and the logic needed to get your next project going with minimal boilerplate overhead. > > You can see a basic demonstration implementation by visiting the demo repository [here](https://github.com/Framework-Factory/demo). Features -------- [](#features) - **Application entrypoint:** The application entrypoint is located at `FrameworkFactory\Application`, and assists in setting up your application by providing a fluent Boostrap API. - **PSR-11 IoC Container:** The IoC container is the core and the heart of Framework Factory. It is a powerful container that includes many features for adding dependencies to your application, as well as giving you access to them. - **Container Features**: - Container lifecycle hooks - Context binding support - Lazy loaded providers - Provider caching - Facade support - **Fully tested codebase:** The codebase is fully tested using the [Pest PHP](https://pestphp.com/) testing framework. You can see all tests by going [here](https://github.com/Framework-Factory/core/tree/main/tests). ### Documentation [](#documentation) > The documentation can be accessed in one of two ways.
