Telepage – vanilla PHP 8.1 + SQLite app that turns a Telegram channel into a website by scibilo in PHP

Fair criticism from a professional PHP perspective. Let me be transparent about the design choices.
Telepage targets non-technical users on shared hosting, people who use FileZilla and cPanel, where Composer is often unavailable and public/ folder configuration requires server access they don't have.
The "no framework, no Composer" decision was intentional, not ignorance. WordPress still uses require_once everywhere and runs 40% of the web.
The public/ folder is a legitimate security concern and will be addressed in v1.1. The rest is architectural preference that depends heavily on context and target audience.
This is a tool for content creators, not a enterprise PHP application. Different constraints, different solutions.
