echo_loser Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 My friend Who works avidly with zend framework gave me one of his old books: Easy PHP Websites with the Zend Framework The problem is it's the first edition from 2009. There is a second edition released in May 2011 and when I asked him if I should get the newer one he said some things have changed but the book is still useful. What do you guys think? Has the platform changed enough to warrant getting the new edition? Also, would you reccomend this book as a way of getting familiar with Zend? I really want a comprehensive book that I can follow from start to finish... doesn't seem to be set of tutorials online available for free. Or is there? If there is a set of tutorials somewhere online can someone please direct me towards that? Thank you.

trq Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 Zend Framework 2 should be getting released within the next 4-6 months. I would seriously consider holding out until after that. Either that, or use Symfony2 instead.

echo_loser Posted February 19, 2012 Author Share Posted February 19, 2012 So I guess Zend2 is going to be COMPLETELY different? Maybe I could get started with the book I have now and then take on Zend 2 once it's released? It's from late 2009 though so what do you think? Should be a good intro right? I am intent on learning zend because that seems to be where most of jobs are.
