When I decided to rewrite my webapp, I considered switching from GWT front end and php backend to an MVC framework. I wanted to try django so I started re-writing my app with it. But I found the learning curve to be too steep and I didn't want to spend the amount of time I was spending learning Python and Django. So I gave up and tried CakePHP, Symphony, CodeIgniter. I found CakePHP and Symphony to be difficult to set up. I may have done something wrong, but eventually when I started with CodeIgniter, everything seemed like a breeze.
So CodeIgniter seems to be the best for me.
- huherto 14y agoWe are also considering Code Igniter. But it seems a little outdated. It doesn't take advantage of some of the new happenings in PHP. Composer, Autoloading, Monolog, and Unit testing. using PHP Unit.
- brandoncordell 14y agoCodeIgniter is severely outdated and a pain in the butt to work with. I would go with Laravel, it's got the best features and the best license.
- xauronx 14y agoI wouldn't say it's a pain to work with. I had no problem learning and using it.
