These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine for development and testing purposes.

Features
--------

[](#features)

- **🔒 Built-in Security**: SQL injection protection, input sanitization, and secure query building
- **🛡️ Middleware Pipeline**: Rate limiting, request throttling, and extensible middleware system
- **🏗️ Advanced DI Container**: Interface binding, auto-resolution, and singleton management
- **⚡ Performance**: Optimized routing with middleware caching and efficient request handling
- **🎯 Clean Architecture**: Separation of concerns with proper exception handling
- **🛠️ CLI Tools**: Laravel Artisan-like command line interface for development
- **📚 Educational**: Perfect for learning modern PHP development patterns

### Prerequisites

[](#prerequisites)

1. Composer PHP package manager \[\]
2. PHP 7.4 or higher
3. MySQL/MariaDB database

### Installation

[](#installation)
