Concluding The Bangalore PHP User Group Meeting - January 30, 2010
By Sudheer S
Last Saturday, the Bangalore PHP User Group conducted a meeting. The venue was same as the last time, Microsoft office, Bangalore! The topic of the meeting was Framework Shootout. The frameworks represented were:
- Zend Framework
- CakePHP
- Symfony
- WordPress
I was glad to get an opportunity to represent the Zend Framework. The slides I presented with Ganesh H S can be downloaded or viewed online at SlideShare.
I liked all the presentations. Personally, I believe Zend Framework and Symfony are the two PHP5 frameworks you would want to seriously consider using in your projects. The strengths and weaknesses of each framework varies. In a previous post we discussed the reasons to use Zend Framework. Sjoerd de Jong has offered to conduct training sessions on Symfony for free.
I would like to thank Vinu Thomas for arranging the meet. Look forward for more BPUG meetings in the future.
