API Platform is a popular and easy to use semantic web framework:

1. You design your data model as a set of PHP classes, or you generate the class from any RDF vocabulary such as Schema.org

2. API Platform uses the classes to expose a JSON-LD API with with all the typical features (sorting, filtering, pagination…)

3. You use the provided "smart clients" to build a dynamic admin interface or to scaffold Next, Nuxt or React Native apps (these tools rely on the Hydra API description vocabulary, and work with any Hydra-enabled API)

In addition to RDF/JSON-LD/Hydra, API Platform also supports ActivityPub.

Aren't you the same Dunglas that is head of this project?

Great idea by the way! had to the pleasure of working with api platform in some Symfony applications in a past gig. I can vouch its easy enough to use, but the GraphQL integration (at least at that time) was really slow. I have not found PHP to be the ideal runtime for GraphQL
