## What it is
imi is a PHP framework supporting long-connection microservices and distributed development, runnable under PHP-FPM, Swoole, Workerman, and RoadRunner. It provides an ORM, connection pools, WebSocket/TCP/UDP/MQTT/gRPC servers, and microservice components like service discovery, config centers, and monitoring. Note: the project stopped maintenance on 2025-12-31 and is not recommended for new projects.

## Use cases
- build php microservices with long connections
- develop websocket chat server in php
- iot backend with mqtt in php
- swoole php framework with orm and connection pool
- grpc services in php
- real-time tcp/udp server framework for php

## When to choose
- maintaining an existing imi-based project
- you need a coroutine PHP framework running on Swoole or Workerman
- building long-connection services like IM or IoT gateways in PHP

## When to avoid
- starting a new project (officially discontinued as of end of 2025)
- you need long-term community support or security updates
- your stack is not PHP
