Well, the answer to be would be your background.
DW is a good design tool but it lacks methodologies, it lacks design
principles and last but not least is not an IDE for serious development.

Hi Jeff,
A very quick answer is that if i came and worked for your company would i
know on the first day which snippets did what? Would I conform to your
standards? Frameworks allow people to pick up code and run with it
quickly
and conform to rules set out with in the framework.
Well,
And surely, like most if not all CS grads you would have learned a design
pattern in whatever OO language you were taught? A framework probably was
shown as well, and it's benefits?
Not really. Design patterns, sure. But frameworks? Never. I graduated from
CompSci around the mid to late 90s.
In short, there's nothing you NEED a framework for, but there are a
lot of smart developers out there, and I generally prefer to trust
code that someone else wrote (and tested, exercised, and then released
to a large community) over code that I wrote (with no other vetting).

I didn't take your comments that way. I do think that comparing
usage of a Framework to your company's Dreamweaver team workflow is
an apples to oranges comparison, though.There's nothing mutually
exclusive about the two. One provides a common lanuguage for your

Most of the benefits from a framework (at least in my view) come from
the bookkeeping that the framework takes care of automatically. For
example, ColdSpring manages dependency injection, so I don't have to
write any code to do that. ColdSpring also provides AOP functionality
