Warning: this 21.1 release is the final release of Outlast Framework - support has ended as of January 2021. For new projects, consider using Laravel.
Developing and supporting dozens or even hundreds of projects? Outlast Framework aims to standardize and modularize this process at a level that goes beyond anything you’ve seen in a PHP framework…
It has all the usual goodies you expect (open source, MVC design, powerful templating engine, ORM, built-in unit-testing, etc.) but adds a convention-over-configuration attitude, and a unique approach to modularity.
Outlast Framework is actively developed and used on several production sites. It is considered ready for a production environment. Only tested changes considered stable enough are typically pushed as Github releases.
That said, there are still some incomplete features in OFW, so if you have requests or run into trouble let us know.
Releases are published every few months and can be grabbed here.
If you want to actively develop features for Outlast Framework, you'll need to clone a copy or add the system submodule and submit pull requests for consideration.
Please note that the system folder in the master branch is handled as a submodule. So, when you clone the repo, you'll also need to init submodules before you can start using OFW:
git pull
git submodule update --recursive --init
You can also repeat the command to update to the latest version at any time.
