## What it is
A PHP composer package that runs Laravel and Lumen applications on a high-performance Swoole-based HTTP server, benchmarked up to 5x faster than Nginx with PHP-FPM. It also supports running WebSocket and Socket.io servers within Laravel, with sandboxed app container isolation and cross-process data sharing via Swoole tables.

## Use cases
- speed up my laravel application performance
- run laravel or lumen on a swoole http server
- serve a php app without nginx and php-fpm
- add a websocket server to laravel
- build a socket.io server inside a laravel app
- boost requests per second for a lumen api
- share data between php worker processes

## When to choose
- You need to significantly increase request throughput of an existing Laravel/Lumen app without rewriting application code
- You want to serve WebSockets or Socket.io directly from a Laravel application
- You are on older Laravel (>=5.5) or PHP (>=7.2) versions that Laravel Octane does not support

## When to avoid
- Starting a new project - the README explicitly recommends Laravel's official laravel/octane instead
- You need long-term maintenance and security updates - the package is no longer maintained
- You need coroutine support - the README points to Hypervel for higher-performance coroutine-based Laravel-style development
