README

        


API Platform is a next-generation web framework designed to easily create API-first projects without compromising extensibility

and flexibility:

* Design your own data model as plain old PHP classes or [**import an existing ontology**](https://api-platform.com/docs/schema-generator).

* **Expose in minutes a hypermedia REST or a GraphQL API** with pagination, data validation, access control, relation embedding,

  filters, and error handling...

* Benefit from Content Negotiation: [GraphQL](https://api-platform.com/docs/core/graphql/), [JSON-LD](https://json-ld.org), [Hydra](https://hydra-cg.com),

  [HAL](https://github.com/mikekelly/hal_specification/blob/master/hal_specification.md), [JSON:API](https://jsonapi.org/), [YAML](https://yaml.org/), [JSON](https://www.json.org/), [XML](https://www.w3.org/XML/) and [CSV](https://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc4180.txt) are supported out of the box.

* Enjoy the **beautiful automatically generated API documentation** ([OpenAPI](https://api-platform.com/docs/core/openapi/)).

* Add [**a convenient Material Design administration interface**](https://api-platform.com/docs/admin) built with [React](https://reactjs.org/)

  without writing a line of code.

* **Scaffold fully functional Progressive-Web-Apps and mobile apps** built with [Next.js](https://api-platform.com/docs/client-generator/nextjs/) (React),

[Nuxt.js](https://api-platform.com/docs/client-generator/nuxtjs/) (Vue.js) or [React Native](https://api-platform.com/docs/client-generator/react-native/)

thanks to [the client generator](https://api-platform.com/docs/client-generator/) (a Vue.js generator is also available).

* Install a development environment and deploy your project in production using **[Docker](https://api-platform.com/docs/distribution)**

and [Kubernetes](https://api-platform.com/docs/deployment/kubernetes).

* Easily add **[OAuth](https://oauth.net/) authentication**.

* Create specs and tests with **[a developer friendly API testing tool](https://api-platform.com/docs/distribution/testing/)**.

The official project documentation is available **[on the API Platform website](https://api-platform.com)**.

API Platform embraces open web standards and the

[Linked Data](https://www.w3.org/standards/semanticweb/data) movement. Your API will automatically expose structured data.

It means that your API Platform application is usable **out of the box** with technologies of

the semantic web.

It also means that **your SEO will be improved** because **[Google leverages these formats](https://developers.google.com/search/docs/guides/intro-structured-data)**.

Last but not least, the server component of API Platform is built on top of the [Symfony](https://symfony.com) framework,

while client components leverage [React](https://reactjs.org/) ([Vue.js](https://vuejs.org/) flavors are also available).

It means that you can:

* Use **thousands of Symfony bundles and React components** with API Platform.

* Integrate API Platform in **any existing Symfony, React, or Vue application**.

* Reuse **all your Symfony and JavaScript skills**, and benefit from the incredible amount of documentation available.

* Enjoy the popular [Doctrine ORM](https://www.doctrine-project.org/projects/orm.html) (used by default, but fully optional:

  you can use the data provider you want, including but not limited to MongoDB and Elasticsearch)
