Why I wouldn’t use Symfony for a new project

- DuoSRX 16y agoSomehow the comments are more interesting than the article itself.

- teilo 16y agoWhen I see articles like this, I often wonder why the developers do not look beyond their current language of choice. I can understand it if they are stuck with business restrictions passed down from "on high", but a developer should not limit his choices purely on the basis of his current language preference. The last time I considered Symfony was a couple years back when I was searching for a decent framework for my own sites. I considered CakePHP as well, and even took it for a spin. But then I decided to broaden my horizons and look at other languages. It was then that I discovered Django, which caught my eye chiefly because of its speed vs. Cake and Symfony. It has served me well for the last couple of years. Eventually, I will probably move beyond Django. I may even (gasp!) check Rails out again, or look toward Java when the time is right.
