Siler is a set of general-purpose high-level abstractions for PHP that provides declarative, function-based routing, HTTP handling, GraphQL, and WebSocket support with zero dependencies. It can be used standalone as a micro-framework or within any framework, with first-class Swoole support for high-performance non-blocking servers.

Use cases

• build a lightweight php rest api without a framework
• serve http with swoole in php
• add graphql endpoint to a php app
• simple function-based routing in php
• run a websocket server in php
• micro-framework for small php projects

When to choose

• you want a zero-dependency, function-oriented PHP HTTP layer
• you need Swoole-based non-blocking HTTP servers in PHP
• you prefer flat files and plain functions over framework conventions

When to avoid

• you need an actively maintained project - the repository is archived
• you want a full-featured framework with ecosystem and long-term support
• you need modern PHP version compatibility guarantees
