Laravel isn't working for us - What Frameworks are worth taking a look at...

• Spiral Framework

  15 1,690 9.5 PHP

  High-Performance PHP Framework (by spiral)

  

We have invested around a decade to create a framework for us and our client needs which is optimized out of the box and has mature tools - https://github.com/spiral/framework

• Cycle ORM

  6 1,196 8.3 PHP

  PHP DataMapper, ORM (by cycle)

  

It uses the (H)MVC model, anti-leak DI container, DataMapper ORM (https://github.com/cycle/orm), Symfony components, and RoadRunner (https://github.com/spiral/roadrunner) as an app server (which we also created).

• WorkOS

  workos.com sponsored

  The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  

• SlimAurynInvoker

  1 7 2.6 PHP

  Allows route callables to be dispatched by Auryn.

I personally use it with a custom library to allow using Auryn to be used as the dependency injector...but that might not be to your liking, but for me it means that I can have local dev be very very similar to production environment.

• Slim

  46 1,561 6.2 PHP

  Slim Framework 4 Skeleton Application

  

Slim is very 'light' and is probably a better fit for people who either don't need, or don't want, Laravels way of doing stuff.
