README

The framework engine powering LitePHP applications. This package contains all the internals — routing, HTTP, database, auth, validation, events, queue, and more. It is not meant to be used directly; start from the app template instead.

**PHP 8.1+ · Zero runtime dependencies · **

Installation

This package is installed automatically when you create a new app via Composer:

composer create-project litephp/app my-app

To add it to an existing project manually:

composer require litephp/core

Requirements: PHP 8.1+, PDO extension, Fileinfo extension

For app developers

If you want to build an application with LitePHP, use the app template — not this package directly:

👉 https://github.com/Lazycoder229/litephp-app.git

The app template includes the project structure, bootstrap sequence, example controller, routes, views, middleware, and the php lite CLI — everything you need to start building.
