Integrate OctaPHP in Slack
with Axolo

OctaPHP is a lightweight PHP framework designed specifically for developers who are struggling to understand the MVC architectural pattern. While it does not aim to compete with established PHP-frameworks like Symfony, CodeIgniter, Laravel, and Zend, OctaPHP offers an opportunity for developers to learn and have fun while working with MVC.

OctaPHP is highly customizable and inspired by CodeIgniter framework. It uses Twig template engine from Symfony and an active record with Object-Relational-Mapping (ORM) ready of RedBeanPHP. The framework is built for complex web algorithms and has gone through four phases of development, with the latest phase completed on June 27, 2019.

It is important to note that OctaPHP is currently in pre-alpha-2 stage and not yet ready for production use. However, it is a promising tool for developers who want to learn and experiment with the MVC architectural pattern in PHP.
