A huge list of PHP open-source libraries to build your awesome PHP applications



In a previous blog article about RAD (Rapid Application Development), I have explained quite a few benefits about the reason of RAD. Since the article was published, I was being asked with a lot questions about how to quickly develop a prototype PHP web applications with minimal development. Well, here comes the short list of ready-to-use PHP libraries that will definitely speed up your PHP application development. And those are the classes, frameworks, libraries that I've used in the PHP applications that I've developed for my clients.

  • blueimp/jQuery-File-Upload - File Upload widget with multiple file selection, drag&drop support, progress bar, validation and preview images, audio and video for jQuery. Supports cross-domain, chunked and resumable file uploads. Works with any server-side platform (Google App Engine, PHP, Python, Ruby on Rails, Java, etc.) that supports standard HTML form file uploads.
  • PHPMailer/PHPMailer - The classic email sending library for PHP
  • matomo-org/matomo - Liberating Web Analytics. Star us on Github? +1. Matomo is the leading open alternative to Google Analytics that gives you full control over your data. Matomo lets you easily collect data from websites, apps & the IoT and visualise this data and extract insights. Privacy is built-in. We love Pull Requests! (Previously Piwik).
  • getgrav/grav - Modern, Crazy Fast, Ridiculously Easy and Amazingly Powerful Flat-File CMS
  • walkor/Workerman - An asynchronous event driven PHP framework for easily building fast, scalable network applications. Supports HTTP, Websocket, SSL and other custom protocols. Supports libevent, HHVM, ReactPHP.
  • egulias/EmailValidator - PHP Email address validator library inspired in @dominicsayers isemail function https://github.com/dominicsayers/isemail
  • FriendsOfPHP/Goutte - Goutte, a simple PHP Web Scraper
  • php-ai/php-ml - PHP-ML - Machine Learning library for PHP
  • reactphp/react - Event-driven, non-blocking I/O with PHP.

  • mgp25/Chat-API - The php WhatsApp library
  • dodgepudding/wechat-php-sdk - 微信公众平台php开发包, weixin developer SDK.
  • overtrue/wechat - 📦 It is probably the best SDK in the world for developing WeChat App.
  • mgp25/Instagram-API - Instagram's private API
  • vrana/adminer - Database management in a single PHP file (200% better than PHPMyAdmin)
  • defuse/php-encryption - Simple Encryption in PHP.
  • box/spout - Read and write spreadsheet files (CSV, XLSX and ODS), in a fast and scalable way
  • klein/klein.php - A fast & flexible router

As you can probably see from the above list, I have not listed any PHP frameworks simply because I do not use any PHP frameworks or micro-frameworks for my RAD projects. Why? Because frameworks usually have bugs and traps that can really get you into deep sh*t and you will not have a clue on how to get yourself out. So, very often, I would build my own framework that was specifically designed for the RAD project. One major advantage over that is you have full control over the performance and stability of the framework.

What are the financial consequences of power outages for industrial facilities?

Image
  Power outages can have severe financial consequences for industrial facilities, some of which include: 1. Production Losses: One of the most significant financial consequences of power outages is production losses. When the power goes out, industrial processes are often disrupted, leading to missed deadlines and lost production. These losses can result in reduced productivity and lost revenue for the facility. Some industrial facilities may find it challenging to make up for lost production once power is restored, resulting in longer-term financial impacts. 2. Increased Costs: Power outages can increase the operating costs of industrial facilities. Facilities may need to purchase temporary generators or other equipment to restore power and maintain operations during the outage. These additional expenses can add up quickly, leading to increased production costs. 3. Equipment Damage: Power outages can also damage sensitive industrial equipment. When the power goes out and comes bac...

What are the major differences between RISC-V and traditional RISC CPUs?

Image
For those of you new to RISC-V, it is an open-source Instruction Set Architecture (ISA) that began as a 2010 project of UC Berkeley’s Parallel Computing Laboratory and is now ushering in a new era of chip design and innovation. As the adoption of RISC-V accelerates, it will be used to support a plethora of devices and products, from automotive to 5G and wireless networking, to data centers and beyond. We are seeing new RISC-V architectures that are, for example, designed to deliver new capabilities for pre-silicon development, allowing new ways for SoC (System-on-Chip) architects and system software developers to define new products. This enables organizations to quickly prototype a product, including products for automotive with safety packages. (an excerpt from “Driving the Future of Chip Innovation: Top Three Reasons to Adopt RISC-V” by Desi Banatao) As a RISC architecture, the RISC-V ISA is a  load–store architecture . Its floating-point instructions use  IEEE 754 ...
