Hi, Farzan I do not really get your point of confusion ... What you've posted here are tools/frameworks that do not to the same stuff at all, yes you could even use all without missing something ... cakephp .. is a full-stack PHP-Framework. Yes, I have to say that there's quite a bunch of full-stack frameworks in PHP you could choose and I myself would recommend one by knowing how much experience you have in PHP :) smarty .. is a template-engine for PHP. If you want to use smarty, twig, php itself or another library as template-engine is up to you. Using a template-engine for some programmers I know just feel like a better separation between the view and the controler/model (search for ModelViewControler if you don't know what I mean here). netbeans .. is an IDE where you can develop with. I prefer to use PhpStorm, others use EclipsePDT, Notepad++ or even the basic editor of windows. This is just about syntax-highlight, code-completion and other things helping you to develop your code. Hope that helps :) Bye Simon On Tue, Jun 5, 2012 at 2:10 PM, Farzan Dalaee <farzan.dalaee@xxxxxxxxx>wrote: > hi guys > i really confuse by choosing the best work station for php ( cakephp , > smarty , net bean , ... ) , please give me some advisdes. > and please tell why which one is better, > tnx > best regards farzan
