Defining Routes [](#1-defining-routes) Stop hunting through routing files. Define routes directly where they belong: ``` namespace App\Controllers; use App\Attributes\Route; use App\Middlewares\AuthMiddleware; class UserController { #[Route(path: "/api/users", method: "GET", middleware: [AuthMiddleware::class])] public function index($request, $response) { // Your logic here return $response->withHeader('Content-Type', 'application/json'); } } ``` ### 2. Layered Architecture [](#2-layered-architecture) Generated modules follow a clean structure: - **Controllers**: Handle HTTP requests and JSON responses. - **Services**: Contain business logic and database interactions. - **Middlewares**: Handle cross-cutting concerns (Auth, Validation, CORS). ### 3. Database & Docker [](#3-database--docker) Start your development environment with a single command: ``` docker-compose up -d ``` Access your application at `http://localhost:8080`. --- 📂 Project Structure ------------------- [](#-project-structure) ``` ├── bootstrap/ # App initialization & DB setup ├── config/ # Configuration files ├── installer/ # Interactive setup scripts ├── public/ # Web server root (index.php, .htaccess) ├── src/ │ ├── Attributes/ # Custom PHP Attributes │ ├── Controllers/ # API Controllers │ ├── Middlewares/ # Application Middlewares │ ├── Routing/ # Route Discovery Engine │ └── Services/ # Business Logic / Services └── sterslim # Main CLI Tool ``` --- 📜 License --------- [](#-license) This project is licensed under the MIT License - see the [LICENSE](LICENSE) file for details. --- Developed with ❤️ by [gruxlolo-dev](https://github.com/gruxlolo-dev) ### Health Score 38 — LowBetter than 83% of packages Maintenance84 Actively maintained with recent releases Popularity3 Limited adoption so far Community6 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity52 Maturing project, gaining track record Bus Factor1 Top contributor holds 100% of commits — single point of failure How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
