Jelix is a framework for PHP5, whose objective is to contribute to the realization of applications or Web sites of any kind.

Here is what is proposed to the developer:

• API dealing with numbers of technical aspects: data access, MVC model, templates, exit format generator (HTML, XUL,…), Web services (xml-RPC, json-RPC), authentication, rights management, localization etc.
• a modular structure and an organization of the files of the project, imposing a framework and some developing standards.
• a “layer” organization of the project: presentation, coordination, service, business, persistence.

These characteristics allow for a better re-use of the code, a capitalization of know-how, a better organization in the development, all this moving to a better productivity.

Jelix uses to the maximum of specificities of PHP5, in order to be the lightest and most powerful possible. This is why a project based on Jelix is 100% object.
