Fabric Framework
Welcome to the Fabric Framework, a comprehensive port of Laravel's Illuminate components to Dart. Fabric aims to provide a robust, scalable, and feature-rich framework for building modern web applications using Dart.
Overview
Fabric is designed to mirror Laravel's Illuminate components, ensuring a familiar structure for developers accustomed to Laravel while leveraging Dart's modern language features. The framework consists of various packages that collectively offer a complete solution for web development.
Goals
- Maintain Laravel's Structure: Keep the directory and component structure identical to Laravel, but adhere to Dart best practices.
- Ensure Modularity: Port each Illuminate component as a separate Dart package for modular usage.
- Enable Rapid Development: Provide a running base application quickly to facilitate real-time testing and development.
Key Features
- Modular Packages: Each Illuminate component is available as a standalone Dart package.
- Comprehensive Routing: Powerful routing capabilities inspired by Laravel.
- Dependency Injection: Built-in support for dependency injection to promote loose coupling.
- Middleware Support: Use middleware for filtering HTTP requests entering your application.
- Authentication & Authorization: Robust tools for user authentication and authorization.
- Database Abstraction: Database-agnostic query builder and ORM.
- Queueing System: Manage background tasks and queues.
- Event Broadcasting: Real-time event broadcasting for modern applications.
