About

Flow, formerly known as TYPO3 Flow or FLOW3, is a PHP web application framework focused on Domain-Driven Design (DDD) and clean code principles.

It offers a modular architecture, a powerful templating engine called Fluid, supports Aspect-Oriented Programming (AOP), and provides transparent object persistence.

Kohana is a deprecated open-source PHP framework that was last updated in 2016. It is no longer maintained, though a community fork called Koseven continues support for projects still using the framework.
