php-glfw brings the GLFW library to the PHP language, enabling native GUI and OpenGL windowing capabilities directly from PHP scripts. This experimental extension allows developers to create real-time graphical applications, games, and simulations in PHP—traditionally a backend web language—by binding low-level graphics and windowing APIs. It opens creative possibilities for developers more comfortable in PHP or looking to prototype desktop applications with web-style syntax. It’s ideal for educational purposes, quick prototyping, or just for fun.
