"Be, Don't Do" - A paradigm where objects represent states of being, not collections of behaviors.

The Ontological Programming Framework for PHP

Be Framework implements Ontological Programming - focusing on what things are rather than what they do. Objects represent immutable states that transform through constructor-driven metamorphosis.

• New Paradigm - Shift from "what to do" to "what to be"
• Semantic Variables - Variable names carry meaning and constraints
• AI Native - Define meaning and constraints, let AI optimize implementation
• No Invalid States - Objects can't exist in broken states
• Temporal Existence - Time and domain are inseparable; objects exist in time
• Natural Testing - Each state is independently verifiable

Run the hello-world example to see Be Framework in action:

php example/hello-world.php

This demonstrates:

• Constructor-driven metamorphosis
• Type-driven branching (formal vs casual styles)
• Semantic validation with meaningful error messages
• Automatic transformation through #[Be] attributes
