About

The Skeleton is a PHP5 framework that can be used as the basis for your own full stack framework or its modules can be used independently. It uses the common Front/Action Controller architecture with Registry/Request/Response objects. It supports clean URLs but does not require them. And it has many of the usual support classes.

The framework is more loosely coupled and lighter than other frameworks. The goal is to allow for more minimal implementations, yet add layers to add more complex functionality. An attempt is made to allow the programmer some choice in the style they want to use e.g. use convention or configuration, exceptions or return values, router or not, base controller class or not, etc.
