description Phalcon Overview

Phalcon is an open-source web framework for PHP whose core components are implemented as a compiled extension written primarily in C. It provides tools commonly used in MVC applications, including routing, dependency injection, database abstraction, object-relational mapping, validation, caching, and templating. Because much of the framework executes in native code, applications can access its classes from PHP without loading an equivalent framework entirely from PHP source files.
