FeatherPHP
A fast, robust and small but featured MVC framework for PHP 5. Not a minimalistic nor a full featured framework, with fancy AJAX helpers. Just a full MVC framework to easily create websites, especially on dedicated servers. I try not to repeat any code, not to reimplement whatever has already been implemented in PHP extensions and to keep everything damn simple (to code, and to use).
If you are looking for AJAX frameworks, check out jQuery, Mootools or DOMAssistant. They all play nicely with FeatherPHP.
Current state
- Stable release: FeatherPHP 2.0.0
- Development: work on FeatherPHP 3.x is in preparation: complete rewrite of ActiveRecord, creation of ActiveResource and a template-like system for Views.
Why another PHP framework?
First, I needed a framework for my projects and I wanted to learn more of PHP5's object programming. Second, I didn't feel at ease, didn't understand, or just didn't like other frameworks. Symphony for instance, is far too complicated for my poor, lazy, simple mind. Third, I couldn't help myself but do it.
