Videna PHP Framework
====================

[](#videna-php-framework)

PHP MVC Micro-Framework, developed by [HostBrook](https://hostbrook.com) team. This fast and lightweight MVC framework was developed to use at the shared hostings for small-size projects, where quantity of files and hosting speed are limited. Framework has a minimum required quantity of dependencies at the maximum functionality.

- Matches [PSR-1](https://www.php-fig.org/psr/psr-1/), [PSR-4](https://www.php-fig.org/psr/psr-4/), [PSR-5](https://github.com/php-fig/fig-standards/blob/master/proposed/phpdoc.md) and [PSR-12](https://www.php-fig.org/psr/psr-12/) Standards Recommendations.
- Comes out of the box with [PHPMailer](https://github.com/PHPMailer/PHPMailer) SMTP mailer.
- Integrated CSRF and XSS protection mechanisms.
- Can work with applications where connection to a database is not required.
- Pre-cooked Maria/MySQL databases inqueries via PDO.
- Pre-cooked Web API and Cron jobs controllers.
- Multi-language support.
- Super light: less than 100 kB size of the framework core.
