Testimonials

We are proud to hear that so many people use Hyde to build their websites. Here are some of our favourite mentions.

Caen (@CodeWithCaen) has made a website for his PHP-based static-site generator.

What I'm mostly impressed with is how clean and straightforward the documentation is. Writing good documentation is an art and Caen did an amazing job at it. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

HydePHP is actually simple to setup. Now, I'm not a PHP developer and I can barely write a function in this language, but the project actually delivers on what it promises.
