z77/kernel
==========

[](#z77kernel)

Foundation package for the Z77 framework — one Composer package, three namespaces. Read-only split from [z77-ch/z77-framework](https://github.com/z77-ch/z77-framework). Do not commit here.

NamespaceAspectDirectory`Z77\Core`boot — framework start / runtime`core/``Z77\Shared`platform — common base for all modules`shared/``Z77\Persistence`storage — reading and writing data`persistence/`The three are functionally inseparable (login and save span all three), so they ship as one package rather than three cyclic ones. See [ADR-023](https://github.com/z77-ch/z77-framework/blob/main/docs/02-decisions/adr-023-kernel-package-core-shared-persistence.md).

Getting started
---------------

[](#getting-started)

Don't start a project with `composer require`. Use the [z77-skeleton](https://github.com/z77-ch/z77-skeleton) template — **Use this template** → `composer install`. It ships the full project `composer.json`, runs the installer, and lays out the override structure. `composer require z77/kernel` only adds the kernel to an **existing** z77 project.
