About Rhubarb

Rhubarb is a collection of open source projects that together comprise the Rhubarb PHP framework.

Rhubarb is aimed at developers who need to build PHP applications that address the challenges of enterprise application development:

• Performance degradation as the application grows
• Poorly defined patterns for modular reuse of common application elements

Rhubarb is designed to enable modern development practices, patterns and principles including

• Dependency Injection
• Test driven development
• SOLID principles of software design
