Is FrankenPHP a fork? #849
-
From the documentation, I don't understand, is FrankenPHP a fork of Caddy, or just an extension? If it's a proper extension, where is the documentation that explains how to install that? I mean, for the use case where I already have my Caddy server and want to add FrankenPHP? I don't see anything in the documentation explaining how to do that? It doesn't seem like that's going to be an exotic use case? Or is it actually a modified version of Caddy? Do I need to switch from Caddy to FrankenPHP? |
