The Sungrazr Project

Peripheral libraries for the Solar Framework

A sungrazing comet, also known as a sungrazer, is a comet that passes extremely close to the sun. Sungrazers are often pulled into the Sun and absorbed, but some sungrazers simply continue to orbit the Sun closely.

In a similar fasion the Sungrazr Project is for libraries and applications that are closely related to the Solar Framework. Some libraries may occasionally be absorbed into Solar itself, while others will continue to exist outside of Solar.

The Solar Framework is a combined class library, component suite and application development framework for PHP 5. It provides simple, easy-to-comprehend classes and components for common aspects of web-based rapid application development.

Solar itself is known for being quite stable. Sungrazr strives for similar stability, but also strives to push the envelope a bit further than the main line of Solar development.

The Solar Framework also has no external dependencies (other than PHP 5 itself). Sungrazr packages, on the other hand, may at times introduce dependencies on high-quality libraries from other projects.
