This is the home page for PHK, the PHP
pacKage format and software.
PHK is a PHP-oriented package/archive system. Basically, it can be considered
as a PHP-oriented equivalent of the Java jar format. As jar, PHK allows
to distribute and run a library or an application as a single file. It also
provides a lot of higher-level features such as an autoloader, integrated unit tests, meta-packages, CRC
checks, digital
signatures...
New to PHK ? Through this short introduction, you will discover PHK's main features and
what it can bring to your projects.

 Many thanks to Alexandre and Raphaël, both 11 years old. Although they don't have any interest in PHK, they took the time to design the project's logo.
They both deserve a nice tee-shirt.
