PHPixie – modern component based PHP framework

PHPixie started as a micro framework and has gradually grown to be one of the most popular fullstack PHP frameworks while retaining its high performance.

This is in part because of the strict architecture that avoids common pitfalls such as reliance on static methods, global scope, singletons and other antipatterns, thus also ensuring that the code is easy to read, debug, extend and test.

In fact all PHPixie components boast full unit test coverage. It is the PHP framework that will never stand in your way and provides you with full control over execution flow, easy to learn and straightforward to master.

PHPixie is free and open source software.

Key Features

  • Bundle system – reuse and share your code via composer as self contained bundles.
  • Linear code flow
  • MongoDB support.
  • Designed from scratch according to SOLID principles and industry standards.
  • Hardened security – using cryptographically secure hashesh, random tokens and secure cookie handing.
