History

As ZSF was entering its 4th major evolution, we wanted to extract as much of the core system as possible into Composer libraries that could be used in website and CLI projects for PHP. We made the following libraries:

  • stoic-php-core - The core system with events/chains, logging, and other utilities
  • stoic-php-io - Input/output utilities that add functionality to the core system
  • stoic-php-pdo - Basic wrappers around PHP's PDO system for simple database access and object mapping
  • stoic-php-web - A simple web framework that provides routing, request/response helpers, basic API structure support, and more
