v0.24.0-beta MITPHP 8.4+
Bootgly is the native, zero-dependency PHP framework with one async core for Web and CLI. No Nginx, no PHP-FPM, no C extensions — and no third-party packages for your security team to audit.
You pay it in servers, in audits, and in onboarding time.
The classic stack puts Nginx in front, PHP-FPM behind it and supervisors around it. The modern one — Swoole, FrankenPHP, event-loop frameworks — trades that for C extensions, custom binaries and new APIs to learn. Either way, every piece is one more config to tune, one more thing to monitor — and one more bill.
A typical application pulls in hundreds of vendor packages. Every one of them is supply-chain surface your team ships to production — and has to audit, patch and upgrade.
Competing servers, config schemas and test stacks mean every project is a new set of decisions. Teams slow down arguing about plumbing instead of shipping.
Everything a modern backend needs, built into one coherent core.
A native event-loop HTTP server in pure PHP — Fibers for non-blocking I/O, HTTP/2, WebSockets, TCP and UDP. A drop-in alternative to Swoole and FrankenPHP with nothing extra to install.
Zero third-party packages in the core. The server, router, ORM, sessions, cache and test framework are first-party code — a smaller vendor/ and a smaller attack surface.
One HTTP server, one config schema, one test framework. Predictable code means faster onboarding, faster reviews and no bikeshedding.
Six layers with one-way dependencies and no cross-layer skipping — I2P (Interface-to-Platform) keeps the codebase enforceably clean as it grows.
Dependencies flow one way — down. No skipping, no cycles.
