Masonite is a full-stack web application framework designed to bring common application services together behind a consistent development model. It is aimed at teams building sites that need persistent data, user-facing workflows and integrations with services beyond straightforward HTTP endpoints.
The framework organises an application around routes, controllers, service providers and a dependency injection container. Database models, mail delivery, background jobs and scheduled work can be developed as related parts of the same application. This approach provides structure for more complicated systems while keeping the entry points to individual features accessible.
Typical Masonite projects keep transport handling, business logic and background work in separate components. A notification can be triggered by an event, a queued task can run independently of a browser request, and the same service can be injected wherever it is needed.
This is free and open source software.
