## What it is
A PHP library that renders React components on the server using the V8Js PHP extension to execute JavaScript. It lets developers pre-render React markup server-side and hydrate it on the client.

## Use cases
- render react components server-side in php
- server-side rendering for react apps on a php stack
- pre-render react markup for faster initial page loads
- share react components between php backend and javascript frontend
- seo-friendly react rendering without a node server

## When to choose
- your backend is PHP and you want React SSR without adding a Node.js service
- you need SEO-friendly initial HTML from React components
- you can install and maintain the V8Js PHP extension

## When to avoid
- you use a modern React version or modern SSR tooling like Next.js
- your stack is Node.js-based
- you need an actively maintained library - the last release was 2018
- you cannot install the V8Js PHP extension
