PHP Framework Development Skills

What problem does it solve?

This Skill provides a standardized blueprint for building modular PHP framework components, reducing boilerplate, ensuring Propel ORM discipline, and aligning teams on a consistent directory structure and naming conventions.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Standardized Component Templates: Controllers, Services, Repositories, and Connectors documented with best practices.
• Propel-driven Architecture: Enforces 100% Propel ORM usage for data access with clear separation of concerns and transaction handling.
• Domain-driven File Organization: Domain paths and file naming conventions to support scalable, maintainable codebases.
• Scaffolding Patterns: Templates and checklists that accelerate new domain feature development (controllers, services, tests, migrations, seeders).
• Use Case: When starting a new feature, apply the Skill to generate skeletons and templates for a new domain (e.g., Blog, Ecommerce) ensuring consistency.

Quick Start

• Review the Skill's recommended patterns in Skill 1-11.
• Create a new domain by scaffolding Domain layer components (Controller, Service, Repository, Connector) using the provided templates.
• Run the standard test suite and Propel model generation steps to validate structure
