Any framework for PHP, as effective as Django for

Question

I am using python with django. There I can simply make form from models and also it had builtin Admin.

I am eager to know corresponding framework for PHP with all this facilities.

I have encountered lot some similar questions like this, but they had not compared the frameworks with django. Experts Please Suggest.

Answer 1

It doesn't have built in admin, but I like CodeIgniter. It really gives you freedom with your code without getting in the way.

Answer 2

I've had good success with Zend in the past. It has a lot of functionality in its libraries and it is all completely decoupled, so you can use whichever parts best fit your task, leaving out other things all together.

Answer 3

Another one that once saved my ass in a project with close deadline was CakePHP

Answer 4

I like Yii. It's based on the Model-View-Controller pattern, like most of the other PHP frameworks mentioned here. It uses templates, can do scaffolding, etc...

Answer 5

I'd try Symfony.

What you're referring to sounds like "scaffolding"
