BetterPHP

Hello,

I would like to start using a PHP framework, to kind of get used to OOP, because I don't really get the point of it.

I would like to try a framework that is not packed with too much stuff but has enough to get me started, maybe create a simple CMS or something. Could you give me any advice please ?

Regards,
CK

OOP is for DRY (Dont Repeat Yourself) coding. It's the same way you might use functions but you use classes as well to separate out them functions (sort of..).
I'd recommend CodeIgniter as a first framework, it has a small learning curve. Once you get comfortable with MVC Architecture I recommend FuelPHP or Laravel (Laravel is MVR but Laravel2 will support MVC also).

Good luck, feel free to email/message me if you need any help!

Thanks Josh

I'll have a look at them Why would you say are these better than, say, Symfony or Zend ?
