Fortissimo is a PHP framework. It's key features are:

  • Rapid: You can write applications quickly.
  • Scalable: Unlike other frameworks, Fortissimo is designed to scale across servers.
  • Chain-of-command, not MVC: Fortissimo uses a different base design pattern, called Chain-of-Command. CoC is easy, makes the most of reusable components, and scales very well. Take a look at commands.xml to see how this works.
  • Well documented: Every function in the library is documented, and the documentation can easily be extracted and converted to HTML (see below). In addition, your applications are self-documenting, making maintenance easier.
  • NSFW: There are No Stupid Fortissimo Wrappers. In other words, you don't need to learn a new API that simply wraps basic PHP functions. Fortissimo is thin.
