Phalcon is an open-source web framework delivered as a C extension for PHP, providing high performance and lower resource consumption.
A big thank you to [our Backers](https://github.com/phalcon/cphalcon/blob/master/BACKERS.md); you rock!
## Getting Started
Phalcon is written in [Zephir/C](https://zephir-lang.com/) with platform independence in mind.
As a result, Phalcon is available on Microsoft Windows, GNU/Linux, FreeBSD and macOS.
You can either download a binary package for the system of your choice or build it from source.
## Installation
### Using PIE (recommended)
[PIE](https://github.com/php/pie) is the modern PHP extension installer:
```bash
pie install phalcon/cphalcon
```
### Using PECL
> [!IMPORTANT]
> PECL has been deprecated, so users should switch to installing Phalcon with PIE. We will keep releasing on PECL until PECL is retired or v5.x reaches its end of life.
```bash
pecl install phalcon
```
### From source
For detailed installation instructions you can check our [installation](https://docs.phalcon.io/latest/installation/) page in the docs.
## Generating API Documentation
Generating new documentation files for docs repository can be done using the script in bin/generate-api-docs.php.
Steps:
- Clone the phalcon repo
- Checkout the tag you would like to generate docs for.
- Run `php bin/generate-api-docs.php`
- The generated `*.md` files will contain the documentation
- For publishing to the Phalcon website this [repo](https://github.com/phalcon/docs/tree/5.0/api) is used.
