PHP Version Support

TNT Framework currently supports PHP 7.4+.

Why PHP 7.4?

Many hosting providers still rely on PHP 7.4 environments for shared hosting customers. TNT Framework is designed to remain accessible and usable even on older hosting infrastructures while still providing modern development patterns and architecture.

A dedicated PHP 8+ branch is planned and will introduce additional modern language features and optimizations.

Philosophy

TNT Framework aims to provide a lightweight foundation for modern PHP applications without unnecessary complexity. It focuses on speed, maintainability, and developer productivity.

Goals

• Keep the framework fast and lightweight
• Reduce memory usage
• Provide clean and predictable APIs
• Maintain minimal external dependencies
• Support modern PHP development practices
