.NET Core vs GraPHP: What are the differences?
What is .NET Core? An Open Source, General-Purpose Development Platform Maintained by Microsoft and the .NET Community. Cross-platform (supporting Windows, macOS, and Linux) and can be used to build device, cloud, and IoT applications.
What is GraPHP? *A PHP graph DB web framework *. The goal of this project is to build a lightweight web framework with a graph DB abstraction. It should be very easy to create the graph schema with no knowledge of of how the data is stored. Also, the schema should be incredibly flexible so you should never need migrations when adding new models (nodes), connections (edges), or data that lives in nodes.
.NET Core and GraPHP can be categorized as "Frameworks (Full Stack)" tools.
Some of the features offered by .NET Core are:
- Cross-platform
- Consistent across architectures
- Command-line tools
On the other hand, GraPHP provides the following key features:
- Full MVC. Zero boilerplate controllers, models, and views.
- Models are your schema. Defining data is up to you (but not required).
- No migrations. Team members can add new models independently without conflicts
.NET Core and GraPHP are both open source tools. .NET Core with 11.2K GitHub stars and 2.41K forks on GitHub appears to be more popular than GraPHP with 135 GitHub stars and 5 GitHub forks.
