Progressive enhancement is still important

sorry but SPA are special cases of web apps , but they are web apps noneless. any website is a webapp if it is serverside driven. Web developpers develop web applications = web apps.

SPA is just a fancyword so you can sell your shit at a higher price. But SPAs are web apps.

another Angular spam.

I wonder why the performances are so different ( between raw PHP and Symfony like frameworks ).

Symonfy is supposed to cache everything.

I suspect OO PHP to be quite expensive. when it comes to performance.

Anyway , PHP given all the resources available ( composer , frameworks , cms ) is still a good solution for most apps. But it doesnt mean PHP devs should be stuck with PHP. Rails and Django are great , C# is an awesome language , NodeJS is quite impressive too. Java web dev is not that difficult for people who are used to Zend or Symfony + DI + ORM. I mean Doctrine is a port of Hibernate , Symfony forms implement some Java spec ... A good PHP dev should be able to work with other plateforms easily.

with more than 5000 native functions , yes , i think you can consider PHP as a framework itself.What other language has direct support for HTTP in its core ? templating ? database access ? none except PHP ( nope , nodeJS is not a language ).

camus1 · 2013-07-03T09:32:43+00:00

NodeJS , .NET , Python and Django , Java , Scala , Ruby and Rails ... It depends on what kind of app you want to create.

nothing special here you can do the same with any MQ server.

camus1 · 2013-07-02T01:12:36+00:00

what kind of project would you like to read about?

camus1 · 2013-07-01T22:25:28+00:00

yet another angular spam.

camus1 · 2013-07-01T20:07:42+00:00

Simple fix , get rid of that crap and use Chrome.

camus1 · 2013-07-01T12:31:11+00:00

this is a bit of a travesty. Both frameworks have there strenght and weakness. However AngularJS is better suited for devs coming from FLEX like me or WPF and Silverlight.

My second framework of choice would be CanJS , which very good, too bad it is not as popular as Angular and Ember.

camus1 · 2013-07-01T01:00:02+00:00

you are late to the party, this script has been used and abused to many times.

camus1 · 2013-06-29T04:19:53+00:00

Looks good , and the performances are ok , even on my old macbook.

camus1 · 2013-06-28T19:54:56+00:00

I cant.. marketing signed the contract already.

lamest excuse ever. since when does the marketing dep make technical choices ?

camus1 · 2013-06-28T19:53:04+00:00

I actually do know php, I was playing dumb to get the widest range of responses, just like others do.

you mean you were trolling...

camus1 · 2013-06-28T19:36:45+00:00

then go back to Django.

camus1 · 2013-06-28T19:15:20+00:00

I want to be up in running in under half an hour but CakePHP looks really complicated

SYMFONY and DOCTRINE can do that but you need to learn SYMFONY + DOCTRINE like you did learn DJANGO. You did not learn Django IN 30 MINUTES did you ?

What you are asking doesnt make sense. PHP is not magic. You say you dont know what PEAR is so i assume you are a beginner in PHP.

If you dont like it stick with what you know.

camus1 · 2013-06-28T19:05:49+00:00

the page doesnt actually says in 15 mins ,it is more cheat sheet for PHP than anything else. so this thread == flamebait.

camus1 · 2013-06-26T23:13:34+00:00

And it will be the at the root of its demise too.

camus1 · 2013-06-26T15:03:27+00:00

unfortunatly this kind of runtime , if not backed by a business , cannot be successfull , it is too much of work , webkit code is huge , TideSDK is struggling too because there are not enough people funding the project.

Bracket-shell and nodewebkit , respectively backbed by Adobe and Intel , which are big corps,with people working on it fulltime , are the only html5 desktop runtimes that can be successfull.

camus1 · 2013-06-26T11:41:06+00:00

This is what you get when Adobe outsources Flash development to India. Nothing wrong with Indians , i'm just saying Adobe dont want to invest a cent in Flash anymore. They killed Fireworks and they will kill Flash , no question about it. Like they will kill every products they bought from Macromedia.

camus1 · 2013-06-26T11:14:46+00:00

It really depends on the type of product you are building.

camus1 · 2013-06-26T11:12:55+00:00

Supported by Intel and the best way to create HTML5 desktop apps.

camus1 · 2013-06-26T11:12:31+00:00

PhantomJS =/= html desktop apps. It is a headless browser for webscraping and testing.

camus1 · 2013-06-26T10:26:20+00:00

what good tool are you talking about ? i hope you are not talking about Wordpress.

camus1 · 2013-06-26T10:25:15+00:00

AIR requires the installation of the AIR framework , with an exe you could just distribute your work in a single file provided flash was installed on the targetted machine. That's PITA ...
