kohanaPHP

This is going to be my framework of choice.

That is until I dig, search, scrape, and lazily google the internet to find one that appeals to me more.

What is kohanaPHP?

“Kohana is a PHP 5 framework that uses the Model View Controller architectural pattern. It aims to be secure, lightweight, and extremely flexible.” - http://kohanaphp.com

Why kohanaPHP?

I was playing around with codeIgniter and felt that it was attracting the wrong audience of developers.

That is, a sub-group of developers who are looking for out-of-the-box solutions and not frameworks.

I use Wordpress because it does everything I need a blog to do ‘out-of-the-box’. However, a framework shouldn’t offer out-of-the-box ’solutions’ it should offer out-of-the-box ‘tools’.

KohanaPHP seems to be a framework attracting developers interested in offering and expanding upon secure, lightweight, scalable tool/tool sets.
