Very Best PHP Development Frameworks Available For 2014
by James Patrick Winson
PHP, the road to success
PHP ranks as one of the most powerful platforms that website developers are keen to work with, seemingly due to the fact that almost the entire world of websites is powered by this technology. As far as website development is concerned, the frameworks are regarded as of a greater importance. Using them for maintenance and preparation of the PHP-based web applications can prove to be extremely time consuming.
A good PHP Framework specialist is one who has sufficient knowledge of the various frameworks and can make every aspect of the developed project manageable, simple and extremely fun to work with. They are also aware of the relevant frameworks to use that will make the development task simple and useful.
The very best PHP Frameworks
Here we take a look at some of the very best PHP Frameworks that have been in use so far for the year 2014. Developers swear by their usage when it comes to working on any of the various web-based application developments, either simple or complex. So it is very important that they are able to choose the right one.
#1. Phalcon: A full-stack, open-source framework written exclusively for PHP5, Phalcon has been written as a C-extension and is optimised towards providing high performance to the users. A developer need not have much working knowledge of the C-programming language since all functionalities are exposed as PHP classes and readily available for use. The framework is also loosely coupled allowing the usage of objects as glue components based on their relevant needs in the application.
#2. Pop PHP: Pop has been designed in keeping up with the current standards prevalent in the PHP community. A completely object-oriented framework, it can be scaled easily so as to accommodate applications of all possible sizes. At present, Pop supports development based on the PHP 5.3+ tool.
#3. Symfony: A highly developed PHP web application framework, Symfony is used specially for the development of various MVC applications. It is a free software and has been released for commercial use under the MIT License.
#4. Kohana: An object-oriented, open-source MVC web framework, Kohana has been built with the use of the latest PHP5 scripting language. The credit for the development of this framework goes to a team of volunteers who wish to keep things small, secure and swift. Kohana holds a BSD licensing thus giving developers the legal right to use it for all kinds of personal, commercial as well as open-source projects.
#5. CodeIgniter: An open-source web application framework that aids rapid development, CodeIgniter is popularly used for building dynamic websites based on PHP. It is based loosely on the popular MVC (Model-View-Controller) pattern of development. While any form of development using the CodeIgniter framework is seemingly impossible without the use of View and Controller classes, Model represents an optional class.
2014 is now entering its last quarter and these are some of the PHP Frameworks that have taken the website and web-based development services industry by storm for the year. So if you are looking to make tweaks and fine-tune your apps and websites for the upcoming year, it is about time developers decide which framework to include in their arsenal for the approaching season.
