tyweed Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 I have a goal to be a php developer. I have a cs degree and 0 work experience. Do you think it is worth while to learn the zend framework? I have been playing around with it and it is very frustrating. I just don't want to be pulling my hair out for nothing. Just wanted other php users opinion.

Juan Dela Cruz Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 Zend is just a frame work you can be a php developer without learning zend zend is just a tool that will help you to organize and make your coding in php easier which uses MVC model if you really want to learn frame works eg.. zend,cake etc.. know the basics first then study OOP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel0 Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 I agree with Juan, you should always learn the basics of a language before you try to use a framework for that language. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bothwell Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 Maybe a dumb question, but what would be the eventual benefit of using a framework approach over just raw coding? Rapid applications development for production environments and less repetition overall? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
