Comment on For those that build web applications, do you use a framework

Comments

For PHP, I recommend KohanaPHP. I've played with it, and it appears to be the most complete framework I've examined.

Same here.

It does have an issue I find significant, which is the Views being a mix of logic and templating. I find this messy and contrary to the original MVC pattern, since it pushes too much presentation code to the controller (it has to decide what formats to present the data in, for example).

But with KOstache[1], a Kohana module, you get your real Views again, along with logicless maintainable Mustache templates. Win/win.

Great, thanks. I have downloaded and am messing around with Kohana now.
