Noesis Framework (Slim, InertiaJS, React, TailwindCSS)

InteriaJS, React (v18) and TailwindCSS with a Slim Framework (v4) backend and normal PHP views based on Slim/PHP-View

Origins

Started as a fork of the amazing work of cherifGsoul/slim-inertiajs-demo, which uses Symfony Encore and Svelte. This project however does not use Encore and replaces Svelte with React.

Since then however, I have completely rewritten it and organised it into src (noesis-framework), server (php), client (js and react) folders and public (web root, css, js, images etc)

In server, the structure resembles Laravel, and I plan to enable many of the core feature of Laravel

The aim of this project will be to allow developers to have everything for a full featured MVC at their finger tips, but only enable the parts you actually need.
