Next alphas
Depending on the feedback from the first two alpha versions, we might opt into adding more alpha versions before 1.0.
1.0 and beyond
There's no hard deadline on when Tempest 1.0 should be tagged. It's clear that we'll have to wait until PHP 8.4 has been released, though it could be a couple of months longer still.
The following features will be included in Tempest 1.0:
- MVC support
- Console application support
- ORM and database support
- Event bus
- Command bus
- Logging
- Mapping and validation
- Tempest Views
Tempest 1.0 will be a lightweight version of the framework, with several useful features still missing. We plan on added features like queue management and mail support in subsequent minor versions:
- 1.1: auth, htmx support, improved form support, and app events
- 1.2: queue manager
- 1.3: mail support
- 1.4: Event bus improvements, possibly with ES support
