LiquidApi
=========

[](#liquidapi)

**LiquidApi** is a lightweight Composer project creator for building fast, modular, and modern PHP APIs.
It provides a clean, extensible skeleton that helps you start coding immediately without the usual boilerplate overhead.

---

✨ Features
----------

[](#-features)

- ⚡ **Slim API skeleton** — minimal and fast, ready for async/event-driven workloads.
- 🔌 **Plug-and-play architecture** — integrates easily with Symfony components, ReactPHP, or your own libraries.
- 🧩 **Extensible by design** — add custom bundles or drop-in modules without losing flexibility.
- 🛠️ **Developer-friendly tooling** — ships with sensible defaults, DTO-first design, and ready-to-use configs.

---

❓ Why LiquidApi?
----------------

[](#-why-liquidapi)

Modern PHP developers often face a tradeoff:

- Full-stack frameworks like Symfony or Laravel are powerful but heavy and opinionated.
- Lightweight micro-frameworks are fast but often lack structure or conventions.

**LiquidApi bridges the gap** by offering:

- A **fast, clean starting point** for APIs without framework bloat.
- **Flexibility** to scale from a simple microservice to a distributed system.
- **Control** over your stack — use only the components you actually need.

Whether you’re experimenting, prototyping, or building production-ready services, LiquidApi gives you the freedom to move fast without being boxed in.

---

🚀 Getting Started
-----------------

[](#-getting-started)

Create a new project using Composer:

```
composer composer create-project liquidrazor/liquid-api my-api
```

or if you are using docker (and like less clutter on your own computer)

```
docker run --rm --interactive --tty -u $(id -u):$(id -g) --volume $PWD:/app composer create-project liquidrazor/liquid-api my-api
```

---

📂 Project Structure

├── tests/           # Unit and integration tests
└── composer.json    # Project dependencies
```

---

🧩 Extending LiquidApi
---------------------

[](#-extending-liquidapi)

LiquidApi is built to be extensible:

- Add Symfony components as needed.
- Swap in ReactPHP for async APIs.
- Write and share your own bundles.

---

🛠️ Requirements
---------------

[](#️-requirements)

- PHP 8.3+
- Composer 2.0+
