Colony is a very lightweight, minimalist MVC framework for PHP. It is designed to be extensible and customizable for a variety of environments, but primary development is focused on a view layer backed by Smarty and model layer backed by Propel.
Speed is the primary focus of the project, both when it comes to runtime execution and application development. The framework sets up a development pattern and then gets out of your way. As a result, it is very small in size and adds very little overhead to execution.
Formerly known as ASOworx.
