About

Bifrost Jump

Read full description

Jump is a mobile programming environment for Laravel and PHP, part of the NativePHP ecosystem. It ships with an interactive NativePHP Playground — a bundled Laravel application with ten live demonstrations of native iOS APIs: camera, photo library, video recording, location, local notifications, biometric authentication, device and battery information, flashlight, network status, and haptic feedback. Each card shows the Laravel code you would write, then runs that exact call on your device through an embedded PHP runtime. Jump also includes the official NativePHP documentation, organized into sections you can browse in the app, and a feed of NativePHP video guides. Use Jump to learn how Laravel applications interact with mobile hardware, experiment with the NativePHP API surface, and see PHP behavior inside a mobile runtime without leaving your phone. For developers extending the runtime, Jump can also connect to a Laravel development environment running on a separate computer via the Jump CLI.
