Hi guys,
So what are your opinions on PHP frameworks, and if they are useful, which ones?
The functionality I'm looking for is some framework for creating users / handling the authentication, creation, deletion, etc..
I've done the database design, created the classes, made the CRUD for the classes to interact with the database. Been there. While it gives me tons of control and customization, it can introduce errors and bugs and takes time. Especially when developing a complicated site.
Is it worth investing the time to explore PHP framework options? (I've looked into Yii framework a bit, debated looking into Symphony..). From my understanding with Yii is that it will create the CRUD classes for your use from your database design. Is it easy to learn and worth utilizing for that consistancy and speed it gives you?
Thanks for your opinions.
