I honestly can't say that I understood your entire mail, but from the what I understood, here's some answer: jQuery is not a framework. It's a great set of tools, useful selectors, transformations, animations, but if you build a complex JS application it won't help you to structure your code properly and avoid generating a gigantic mess of a project. Symfony2 is indeed a framework, it provides a set of tools, sure, but especially it provides structure, best practices, and a consistent environment to grow your application from prototype to "enterprise"-class software. Most people don't need JS frameworks because they just add a few bells and whistles to their pages, and for that jQuery is amazingly easy. That is why, I believe, it is the leading JS toolkit. Application frameworks on the other hand, are complex things, made to solve complex problems. It's very hard to build one that caters to all needs, and that is why you have so many of them, with different specialties, and different user bases and popularity. As for the whole Da Vinci analogies, sorry but I really don't know what to tell you :) Cheers -- Jordi Boggiano @seldaek :: http://seld.be/ -- If you want to report a vulnerability issue on symfony, please send it to security at symfony-project.com You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "symfony developers" group.
