Mysidia bug fixes and rewrite: Would anyone be interested?

You should definitely give Mysidia Deluxe a look! It's been 2 months since the last update, but I haven't dropped the project (just been busy with other stuff).

There also a post here, but it's pretty much the same info from github:

I'll definitely look into that, thanks for sharing!

One thing I'm considering is whether it would be worth trying to rebuild from the ground up, or continuing with a fork of Mysidia like you have and building around that.

Personally I feel like there'd be some benefit in a structural reorganization of the codebase. As it stands currently there's a decent amount of technical debt accruing with how Mysidia was built, with regards to accessibility, future proofing, and patching. One major challenge with the current codebase that I foresee will be getting proper support for PHP 7 too, which is a problem since PHP 5.6 and 7.0 are at EOL.

I'm going to start tinkering with the possibility of a rewrite and see what comes of it. I set up the skeleton for a project the other day (when I made this topic) using Composer and some framework components like NikiC's router and the Auryn IoC container. I'll update this thread when I have some news.

I don't check here every day but in the meantime if any of you want to contact me, send mail to: im__9933.at. Just replace the underscores with an @

I already updated mysidia deluxe to support PHP 7 actually :U
All it really took was some renaming to avoid conflicts.

Rebuilding from the ground up would be better in a way (since, well, it's a brand new framework lol), but I wouldn't really be able to help with that since I'm not knowledgeable enough in "plain" PHP to create a framework from scratch, just to modernize what's already there.

There's a branch on the github that added composer to load important files, although I haven't been able to test it since for whatever reason composer refuses to install on my PC. If someone was able to test and see that the feature works though, that would be great.
