Leaf API is a minimal API wrapper built on top of Leaf PHP which allows you to build APIs with Leaf, faster and simpler than ever before. Leaf API provides an simple and opinionated structure with a tons of functionality built in.
It is built on Leaf 3 which makes it even more lightweight and faster than earlier versions, but comes with a ton of upgrades and security fixes.
You can install Leaf API v3 with the Leaf CLI
leaf create <project-name> --v3 --api
<project-name>
is your project name
You can also use Composer to install Leaf API quickly.
composer create-project leafs/api <project-name>
This will start a new Leaf API app.
