What is PHPStreamServer?

PHPStreamServer is an application server and process manager for modern PHP applications.

Built entirely in PHP, it uses an event loop to run application workers and supervise long-lived processes.

Its plugin system provides HTTP serving, task scheduling, and process supervision into a single runtime, without requiring separate tools such as Nginx, PHP-FPM, Cron, or Supervisor.

Powered by the Revolt event loop and the AMPHP ecosystem, PHPStreamServer supports asynchronous and concurrent execution.

Requirements and Limitations​

  • Unix-like operating system
  • PHP 8.2 or later
  • ext-pcntl, ext-posix, and ext-ffi
  • ext-uv (optional; suggested for better event-loop performance)
