Overview

The PHP MVC boilerplate offers a solid framework for developers looking to integrate user authentication, basic security, and MySQL CRUD operations into their projects. Developed during a final university year project, this boilerplate serves as a functional foundation for private applications, though it's recommended that developers consider more widely adopted frameworks like Laravel for broader functionality and community support.

This boilerplate includes essential features that streamline the creation of database-driven applications. While it provides basic structures for user management and data operations, users should take into account its limitations and underlying requirements to ensure a smooth development experience.

Features

User Authentication: Includes a simple login system allowing authentication using preset credentials, ideal for quickly setting up user access.
CRUD Operations: Supports fundamental CRUD functionality across database tables with designated model files that streamline interactions with the data.
Custom Routing: Routes are organized within a dedicated routes.php file, making it straightforward to manage URL handling and controller associations.
Security Mechanisms: Implements basic security practices such as SQL injection prevention through prepared statements and PDO, along with XSS protection mechanisms.
Database Configuration: Requires a web server (Apache with mod_rewrite) and MySQL database, ensuring compatibility with standard development environments.
Model Framework: Each database table has a corresponding model file, facilitating separation of concerns and easier management of data-related operations.
Input Validation: While basic, forms of input validation are encouraged to enhance security, especially for applications requiring higher levels of protection.
Documentation Support: Optionally integrates tools like ApiGen or phpDocumentor for generating API documentation, aiding in project clarity and maintenance.
