The Legend Returns
------------------

[](#the-legend-returns)

TigerZF is a powerful continuation of the legendary Zend Framework 1, meticulously updated and optimized for modern PHP applications.

- **Modern PHP Support**: Fully compatible with PHP 8.1 through 8.5
- **Enterprise Ready**: Trusted by production applications worldwide
- **Community Driven**: Actively maintained by passionate developers who refuse to let excellence die
