Recently I’ve been toying with the idea of using a PHP framework to help with the development of my web sites. The problem is, I don’t know which one to choose

Some of the frameworks I’ve been looking at include:

Each has there own unique advantages, but what is the best way to decide which one suits my needs the best?

  1. Code Quality, Documentation and Community. That said, I’ve personally choosed Symfony and I don’t regret it.

  2. Symfony and CakePHP are the best: active development and vibrant communities.

    Both are very similar to Ruby on Rails.

    CakePHP is a bit simpler. Symfony is a bit more professional.

    Symfony has the best documentation: more than 700 high quality pages including a complete free book (http://www.symfony-project.com/content/documentation.html).

    Yahoo uses Symfony for Yahoo Bookmarks, Yahoo Answers and del.icio.us (more than 20 million users!!) (source: http://www.phpday.it/site/phpday-2007/calendario-conferenze/canale-enterprise/federico-feroldi-php-in-yahoo/)
