I use Yii2, I tried Laravel and it seemed to me like it's cut corners, that if you go beyond the meat of your CRUD app you find stuff is missing or not well engineered. Not so for Yii2.
- jordanlev 11y agoI too have hit limits of what Laravel does, but for me this is actually a good thing. I think Laravel handles most of the drudge work and then leaves things open for me to do business/app-specific things my own way. Of course this is subjective, as everyone draws the line of "how much do I want my libraries/framework to do for me vs. how much do I want to do myself" in a different place.
- manyxcxi 11y agoI've had the opposite reaction to Yii/Laravel. Coming from a heavy .NET/Java background that utilizes similar architecture patterns, it was quite easy to wrap my head around. When you get used to the IoC/Service Provider architecture you realize you can extend (mostly) any part of the framework to do whatever you want.
