PHP - Code Plugins - General Question


spec36

Recommended Posts

One thing I think about often with PHP is that code in general must get re-written a lot.

 

Is there any platform out there that allows you to take already written, proven, open source code and apply it to a web development project. For example,if I need a login script. Can I just call one in, configure as needed, instead of writing the entire thing from the ground up?

 

Does anyone know of something like this, something that can streamline coding/web projects to speed the process up and prevent making mistakes that others have already fixed /hardened in there code? What is recommend for this?

 

Your help is greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks,

Hi,

 

what you want is a framework like Laravel, Yii, Symfony or whatever. Those already implement all the low-level boilerplate stuff (database access, user authentication, URL routing etc.) and provide a high-level API for you to use.

 

If you just want a particular functionality, look for a library. For example, the Symfony people have published their security features as a separate module which can be included in existing projects.
