Zend PHP Framework

October 17th, 2005

The Utah PHP user’s group may have let the cat out of the bag a day early for an announcement at tomorrow’s Zend / PHP Conference:

Zend Technologies this week will announce Zend PHP Framework, a development environment for PHP applications. … Due later this year, Zend PHP Framework is intended to standardize the way PHP applications are built. A goal of the effort is to foster the development of mission-critical PHP Web applications.

I’m curious about the framework name. When I hear framework, I think API. Are they releasing a something intended to compete on the same level with Rails or .Net?

Zend also will reveal its participation in the open source Eclipse Foundation. … Zend will also join Eclipse as a Strategic Developer-level member and lead a project within Eclipse to develop a plug-in to the Eclipse workbench, for developing with PHP.

Or is this strictly an IDE announcement?

API, IDE or both? Got my attention.

    I wonder if they will build on PHPEclipse (http://www.phpeclipse.de)?

    As for the framework, there are a proliferation of those out there. Maybe being the Big Name behind PHP will give Zend traction. It had better be open source though…

    I should clarify that I meant web application framework. It could just be an IDE framework.

    There is also TruStudio.

    Wow – think that’s great news on the framework. That would really sell PHP.

    [...] There has been rumour lately that Zend (developer of PHP) will release a PHP Framework. This is nothing new, there has been a IDE (Zend ) for a long time now. But it will be based on Eclipse. [...]

    I think they should have considered the rails approach a bit more–might simplify/empower their framework imo.

    Thank you for writing a few very related topic. Such a lot tenderfoot marketers nowadays advertise and offer and sell no matter they can without even having a concrete idea of what issues to prioritize. Maintain them coming!

    Its like you read my mind! You seem to understand so a lot about this, like you wrote the book in it or something. I assume that you just could do with some pics to drive the message home a little, but rather of that, this can be great blog. A superb study. I’ll definitely be back.
