PHP Framework for Developers

  • MVC, OOP, & Open Source

  • Buzzwords aside, PharosPHP aims to provide a rich feature set and structure to make developing your next project in PHP quicker and easier. PharosPHP is also hosted on Github, so you can fork it or submit patches.

  • Active Record

  • Active Record greatly simplifies code interfacing with relational databases. Ruby on Rails (RoR) uses this design pattern extensively. Now enjoy it in your PHP project.

  • Caching, Templates, i18n

  • PharosPHP offers integrated caching, a template structure, internationalization, code-level notifications for extensibility and more.

  • Documentation
