The first version of FuelPHP (FuelPHP 1.0) was developed under the GitHub repository named Fuel. Another GitHub repository named FuelPHP was created for the development of the second version (FuelPHP 2.0).
The project guidelines are to build a framework based on the best ideas from other frameworks. The framework must provide powerful functionalities, it must be easy to work with, and it should have a lightweight codebase that takes account of community developers' orientations.[3][21][22][23]
