About

Win32Service is a non-profit GitHub organization dedicated to developing an open-source PHP extension that enables PHP scripts to run as native Windows services.

The organization focuses on bridging PHP with the Windows service infrastructure, allowing developers to execute long-running PHP processes in the background with proper service lifecycle management (start, stop, pause, and shutdown). The project targets use cases such as daemons, workers, schedulers, and system-level integrations on Windows platforms.

Win32Service aims to provide a reliable, maintainable, and community-driven solution for running PHP in service-oriented Windows environments.
