- ccorcoran 16y agoI believe it is, I haven't met anyone who's used in a long time though. I think CodeIgniter is the current hot framework for PHP.
- philfreo 16y agoCodeIgniter has a big following, but so does Symfony2 and Kohana.
- randall 16y agoI just built an app on both codeigniter and cake... and I prefer cake by far. Cake gets in your way a little bit, but it's good for me since I wouldn't describe myself as a "classically trained coder".
- AlexMax 16y agoCakePHP is what we swear by at work. Still works for us, and we can't wait for 2.0.
- brianbreslin 16y agowe use it all the time too, but i get questions asking why not codeigniter...
- eropple 16y agoCodeIgniter is still PHP4-friendly. It's not "hot" by any means. CakePHP is still actively developed, but it's pretty miserable. (It's slow, too - so much so that framework devs usually benchmark against it because it's so reliably slower-than-everyone-else.) If you're going to use PHP, I can't really think of a good reason to use anything other than Symfony2.
- josegonzalez 16y agoThey're removing PHP4 compatibility in 2.0, which is being more than actively developed. And it at least gets as much traffic as Symfony does: http://www.google.com/trends?q=symfony%2Ccakephp http://www.google.com/trends?q=symfony%2Ccakephp As far as not using Symfony 2, I wouldn't use anything not marked as stable in production. That goes for CakePHP as well.
- randall 16y agoYes. The next version (2.0?) is being finalized now.
