Light Education PHP framework

The "Edu Framework" project aims to answer a recurring question identified during our training courses: "How do you make the transition to a framework like Symfony?"

The main goal of "Edu Framework" is to provide a set of tools, guides and teaching resources that help developers, whether beginners or experienced, make the transition to a framework like Symfony easier. This project covers the fundamentals, with a focus on development best practices.

Edu Framework is also used in cybersecurity lab sessions: deliberately simple and transparent, it makes it possible to study web security vulnerabilities in a teaching context, while providing the solutions and best practices to protect against them — prepared statements against SQL injection, CSRF protection, error messages hidden in production.

Important information

This framework is not suitable for production use. It is intended for educational purposes.
