Show HN: Onetone – A PHP full-stack framework with AI runtime, ORM, CLI

6 points by wowowoasdf ↗ HN
Hey HN,

I built Onetone Framework as a full-stack PHP framework that pushes the boundaries of what PHP can do.

It’s fast, modular, and surprisingly capable — combining backend routing, ORM, CLI tooling, and frontend build support into a single developer-friendly experience.

Highlights: - PHP 8.2+ with autowired routing and ActiveRecord-style ORM - Built-in CLI, Docker setup, and .env support - Frontend build pipeline with Vite, esbuild - Growing test suite covering routing, query building, crypto, math, UUID, and more

It’s still experimental, but I’m excited about how far it’s come. Would love feedback on what feels over-engineered, what’s missing, and what could make it truly useful.

Nice work! The autowired routing + ActiveRecord ORM combo is clean.

Quick question: How does the AI runtime part work? Is it for code generation or something else?

We just shipped Context Sync (MCP server for persistent AI context). If you're doing AI-assisted PHP dev, might be interesting to connect Onetone with it - your framework decisions could persist across AI conversations.

Anyway, good luck with the launch! PHP frameworks don't get enough love these days.
