• Spark – A web micro framework for Java and Kotlin

  I'd recommend Javalin (https://javalin.io/) instead. Same idea, only executed better and it is actively maintained. - Source: Hacker News / 2 months ago

• Spark – A web micro framework for Java and Kotlin

  SparkJava has an actively developed fork/successor called Javalin[1]. It's straightforward to convert from SparkJava to Javalin. The latter is written in Kotlin, but works fine with ordinary Java. While the rest of the Java world was devolving into annotation hell, AOP and other nightmares, these Java microframeworks showcased what happens when you forego legacy Java and leverage modern Java language features... - Source: Hacker News / 2 months ago

• Show HN: Zero-dependency Java framework out of beta

  The size statistics page is super cool: https://github.com/byronka/minum/blob/master/docs/size_comparisons.md Aside from that, I've also had good experiences with Dropwizard - which is way simpler than Spring Boot but at the same time uses a bunch of idiomatic packages (like Jetty, Jersey, Jackson, Logback and so on): https://www.dropwizard.io/en/stable/ I do wonder whether Minum would ever end up on the... - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

• File-based routing (maybe) ... JSX?

  I think this was PHP version 5 or 4 at the time, but it's bad design back then has served to the downfall of PHP in active development (despite the fact that it powers most of the web). However, PHP 8 has brought a lot of new exciting features, so much so that Laravel doesn't even recommend use its lightweight version of Lumen anymore, it's unnecessary. Source: over 1 year ago

• Modern PHP features explained – PHP 8.0 and 8.1

  Lumen is being deprecated due to PHP and Laravel performance improvements that make it largely irrelevant. https://lumen.laravel.com/docs/9.x > Note: In the years since releasing Lumen, PHP has made a variety of wonderful performance improvements. For this reason, along with the availability of Laravel Octane, we no longer recommend that you begin new projects with Lumen. Instead, we recommend always beginning new... - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• If I want to develop a CRUD API application with React.js client side why would I pick Laravel?

  Nah, even Lumen Documentation recommends starting new projects with Laravel. Source: almost 2 years ago

• can I use thecodeholic/tc-php-mvc-core framework for production?

  If you want to use a framework but avoid the "kitchen sink" you could use micro frameworks like Lumen, Slim or Symfony (with the symfony/skeleton starter) and then add packages as required. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Which php-framework should I consider for rest-api?

  If you are just doing a rest api and not serving pages, you could also look into lumen which is a slimmed down version: https://lumen.laravel.com/docs/9.x. Source: about 2 years ago
