JSONful
=======

[](#jsonful)

JSONful is a framework which helps creating API servers.

Features
--------

[](#features)

1. Ease of use

- It exposes regular PHP functions to the API, making it easy to integrate with any other framework and existing code.
- It is easy to make cross domain requests (`$server['public'] = true;`)
- The [javascript client](https://github.com/JSONful/client-js) works out of the box and it's optimized for performance
    - The client concatenates many requests and sending it in a single HTTP request.
    - It has no dependency, and it can be used with WebPack or directly.

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

[](#installation)

```
composer require jsonful/server
```
