I try to switch my webdev from HTML with PHP templates to a JS framework with an API.
Do you have some hints for a PHP based backend for me?
What PHP backend API is your favorite?

KoljaSep 6, 2022Laravel seems a bit to much, just for an API. To be honest, the only reason to not write the SQL queries in the frontend, is the authentification, isnt it?

What are the real advantages of an framework? I just need to read the url for the endpoint and the params, call a function with SQL queries and send back a JSON object.
Is it not overcomplicated to use a framework for that?
I mean, if there are an Interface like Appwrite or Supabase with no or less coding, i would give a try.
But i did not found this based on PHP. Directus was, but they switched to node too.- eshimischiJul 18, 2022
Your question was clearly about “PHP based backend” that’s what you asked? No?

Looks great, like strapi, supabase & co, but they are out of my skills. And BackendAsAServise is nothing my customers would buy.
