Skynet Framework
================

[](#skynet-framework)

**Skynet Framework** is a minimalist PHP framework inspired by Laravel, designed to build **UI applications and REST APIs** using modern architectural patterns such as **MVC, Clean Architecture, Hexagonal Architecture, and Onion Architecture**.

The framework focuses on **simplicity, transparency, and architectural flexibility**, providing a lightweight core that allows developers to structure applications according to their preferred design principles.

Skynet is ideal for:

- REST API development
- UI applications
- microservices
- learning modern software architecture in PHP

Installation
============

[](#installation)

Skynet can be installed using **Composer**.

```
composer create-project julioxfiles/skynet-framework my-project
```

This command downloads the framework and creates a new project.

---

Creating Projects
=================

[](#creating-projects)

Skynet supports different project types.

Create a UI Application
-----------------------

[](#create-a-ui-application)

```
composer create-project julioxfiles/skynet-framework my-ui-app
```

This creates a project designed for:

- server-rendered views
- controllers
- template rendering
- traditional MVC applications

Typical structure:

```
my-ui-app
 ├── app
 │   ├── Controllers
 │   ├── Models
 │   └── Views
 ├── routes
 ├── public
 └── config

```

---

Create an API Application
-------------------------

[](#create-an-api-application)

```
composer create-project julioxfiles/skynet-framework my-api
```

This creates an **API-first project** designed for:

- REST APIs
- JSON responses
- microservices
- frontend separation (React, Vue, etc.)

Typical structure:

```
my-api
 ├── app
 │   ├── Controllers
 │   ├── Services
 │   ├── Domain
 │   └── Infrastructure
 ├── routes
 ├── public
 └── config

```

---

Philosophy
==========

[](#philosophy)

Skynet follows a **minimal core philosophy**:

- simple routing
- clear request/response lifecycle
- explicit architecture
- minimal magic

Developers are free to organize their applications using:

- MVC
- Clean Architecture
- Hexagonal Architecture
- Onion Architecture
- Layered Architecture

---

Requirements
============

[](#requirements)

- PHP 8.2+
- Composer

---
