CakePHP, Anyone?
Thursday, February 22nd, 2007 at 10:26 pmI know that I don’t have too many readers, but still: have any of you used CakePHP?
I’ve got a side project that I’ve just started with a pretty short time frame. I program against an MVC framework at work and would like to build something similar for this project. Unfortunately, their server is running PHP 4.4.2, which makes things a little tougher (I use 5 daily at work, so I’m accustomed to full OOP capability). It’s do-able, but I don’t want to waste a lot of time getting a framework established. From what I’ve been able to find, CakePHP has a bit of a learning curve, but will make things a lot easier to manage in the long run. The problem is that I can’t find any decent testimonials about it (even tried Jyte). What I need is someone who can say, “It’s good for this reason and sucks because of that.”
Unless I find some reviews, I’m going to spend tomorrow evening playing with it. If things don’t go well, I’m down a day, but at least I’ll know whether it’s worth pursuing.
