Introduction
------------

[](#introduction)

TinyFramework started as a small teaching project and continues to grow into a mature "full-vendor" PHP framework. The goal of the exercise was to build a framework that resides exclusively in the vendor directory and has no dependencies to other dependencies.

The implementations of all PSR standards were already removed after the first few classes. The reason for this was that all subareas would have to be implemented differently and inconsistently.

How to start
------------

[](#how-to-start)

```
composer create-project --stability=dev --remove-vcs sgc-fireball/tinyframework-skeleton my-project master
cd my-project; php console
```

Debugging
---------

[](#debugging)

Open PHPStorm Settings `PHP` / `Servers`:

- Name: `tinyframework`
- Host: `127.0.0.1`
- Port: `9000`
- Debugger: `xdebug`
- Use Path Mapping `Yes`
- Map it to `/app`

Use our preconfigurated alias `phpx`.

```
phpx console
```

Performance
-----------

[](#performance)

1. Enable composer classmap authoritative.

    ```
    composer dump-autoload --optimize-autoloader --classmap-authoritative
    ```
2. Uninstall!!!! xdebug
3. Use PHP OpCache. But be case, and disable caching files under /storage/. Watch here [TinyFramework Opcache](https://github.com/sgc-fireball/tinyframework-opcache)
