Examples please? (I'm not trolling. I really want some examples.) I admit that I'm poisoned by spending too much time with Drupal 6, 7, and starting with 8. The most modern PHP framework I have played with is CodeIgniter, which is a huge step forward but not exactly there. Is there something better?
Justin asked me for examples of what I consider to be a modern web framework. Examples that come to mind are: * Ruby on Rails * Python Django * Python Pyramid * Python Flask * Catalyst (Perl) Some of these I haven't played with much, but that is how I interpret the documentation and the Hello World example. Any Java framework like Spring or Wicket will seperate the web accessible elements from code within the WAR file. I believe that .NET makes the same seperation. I admit that I am hating on 10-year-old PHP, but that is because I haven't seen much evolution in that area. I haven't played with any of the Facebook improvements, so there is probably something modern out there. I would appreciate you bringing me up to date. I learned a ton about web development by moving from Drupal to Django. Spring has been very instructive as well. PHP frameworks seem to spend too much time blaming the developer and not enough time doing their job of making proper web development easier.
