Zend Framework preparing for the 1.0 release
June 17th, 2007 | PHP, Web by th | No CommentsAlthough there are a lot of frameworks available for PHP 5, most notably upcoming Zend Framework 1.0 will be important release as it’s officially supported by Zend. Previous attempts to create reusable components for PHP, like the PEAR-repository (sort of) failed to impress developers. A common problem with the PEAR components is the long dependency tree, to use some relatively small component from PEAR, one might need to include thousands of lines of code to actually use the component. Also since it’s pretty open and loose repository, all components don’t receive same amount of Q&A. From time to time, the components might lose their maintainer and slowly fade away.
