What is MFX?

MFX is a PHP micro-framework (hence "MFX"), designed to be used as the core of any regular website or API.

Originally created as a project basis for Cheese Burgames, a now-defunct french independant video game studio. The first version, previously called php-micro-framework was introduced in 2013 and matured in 2016. With time, MFX has evolved into a complete framework for external developments.
