README

Swat is a web application component toolkit.

Swat is an open-source LGPL 2.1 web-application toolkit built using PHP. It is primarily developed and maintained by silverorange, but participation and contributions are welcome.

Swat is not a full-stack web framework. Swat is an interface toolkit analogous to [Gtk](https://gtk.org/ Gtk), but for web applications instead of native applications. Read about why Swat was created.
