Welcome to Fraction 🎯 ​

There's no denying that the "Action Pattern" in the Laravel ecosystem is extremely useful and widely used. However, action classes require "too much content" to do basic things. Let's review a basic action class:

php
namespace App\Actions;

use App\Models\User;

class CreateUser
{
    public function handle(array $data): User
    {
        return User::create($data); 
    }
}

We have a namespace, a class, a method, a return type, a model import, an array as arguments... all of this to create a user. It's overkill for such a simple task, isn't it?

For this reason, the Fraction solution is revolutionary in the context of Actions. Fraction allows you to write actions in a simpler and more direct way, without the need for all this structure, similar to what PestPHP proposes.

See what the same example would look like with Fraction:

php
// app/Actions/Users.php

execute('create user', function (array $data) {
    return User::create($data);
});

Then, anywhere in your application, you can run this action like this:

php
namespace App\Http\Controllers;

use Illuminate\Http\Request;

class CreateUserController extends Controller
{
    public function store(Request $request)
    {
        $user = run('create user', $request->all()); 
        
        // ...
    }
}

With Fraction, you will focus on simplifying action creation while maintaining code clarity and readability and focusing on what really matters: the action logic. No classes, no namespaces, no fluff, just what matters: the action logic 🎯
