I am now doing a PHP project again and looking for the best framework in terms of simple, clean and fast code without over-complicating everything. After working with Tapestry5, the Zend framework looks like going back to the middle ages again: 1. Why on earth should I create database tables? When the objects are defined, the database should be generated automatically (e.g. like Hibernate in the Java world). 2. using the Zend framework means lots of lines of code that is repetitive and not really necessary. When a simple paginator means so much code as described here: http://framework.zend.com/manual/en/learning.paginator.together.html this means I need 5-10 times longer for a project. Ruby on Rails would be better then PHP using Zend...but still - even Ruby on Rails is only 70% of what Tapestry offers and why on earth should I learn another "fashion" language? Just my 2 cents.

They just haven't delivered a useful, logical framework that will make your life easier as a developer and enable you to make fantastic websites & applications. There are a few other options that are a good choice depending on preference, with good support and documentation. Zend Framework is not one of them. Picking one because you think it might be the industry standard when there are clearly better solutions is not a good idea.

It is very nice in the beginning when studying it. But was so hard. We need a framework to make it easy in development but here it is not true. I thing going back to CodeIgniter is the best way to solve these issues. I was studying Zend framework, because it is zend. It is very nice in the beginning when studying it. But was so hard.

If quality, speed and pleasure of developing code are parameters then go for Ruby On Rails Agree, if career is the only parameter go for .NET.

In any case, almost all framework are useless, specially those mvc framework around here. Why?. because you are adding a extra (and complex) layer and you are gaining nothing but adding extra code. Zend Framework specifically is awful, ZF is a mix of several sources of code mix altogether without any rules. The goal of ZF is to growth and nothing else much, the more code ZF add to their stuff then the most bloated and complex it will become.

Most of the companies that are offering php jobs are asking knowledge zend framework as a necessity. 1 major point I agree with the author: Php jobs are increasing day by day.
