hi people,
I'm in the market for a new framework/toolkit/whatever-you-want-to-call-it.
I've been taking a good hard look at the Zend Framework - if nothing
else the docs
are very impressive.
I'd like to hear from people who have or are using ZF with regard to their
experiences, dislikes, likes, problems, new found fame and fortune, etc
... but
only if it concerns ZF.
I don't need to hear stuff like 'use XYZ it's great' - finding php
frameworks/CMS/etc
is easy ... figuring out which are best of breed is another matter, if
only because
it involves reading zillions of lines of code and documentation. besides
I find that
you only ever get bitten in the ass by short-comings and bugs when your
80% into the
project that needs to be online yesterday and you knee deep in a
nightmare requirements
change or tackling some PITA performance issue.
so people, roll out your ZF love stories and nightmares - spare no
details - share the
knowledge. or something :-)
tia,
Jochem
Jochem,
You develop sites in php, zend make php, zend have a framework, so that
may aswell be "the" php framework - it's great, well coded, doc'd and
stable, and doesn't try to do anything too fancy.
At the end of the day the ZF framework is a developer's framework, use
it if you want to make sensible, structured OO php applications to a
high standard, use something else if you want to quickly make "it'll do"
applications in an webdev sweat shop.
ps: get zend studio and integrate it with svn aswell - zend studio cuts
hours out your dev time.
