Should a small studio develop for Zend2?

Question

symfony

I am currently working in a small web studio, we want to develop our own internal product for our support system. The question of what to write the system on causes a huge amount of discussion, but the main message of all the conversations is this: learn a simple framework, taking the latest versions of Yii, Symfony or Laravel and quickly release the product. Or take on the study of complex Zend2, get a good experience, and start maintaining and developing sites on it? I would like to hear the opinion of how things are going with projects and from experts on Zend, from those people who constantly work with it.

Answer 1

Is this how Symfony2 got into the list of simple ones? Of course, it is a little simpler than Zend2, but I can’t say that it is much simpler. Zend just went more the Java way.

Answer 2

The product defines the framework, not the other way around.
Specifically, Zend2 - as a set of libraries, it's really nothing, but as a main execution stack ... I don't know, I don't like it, it's too java-like and overloaded. With Zend, alas, only a bad experience ((.
The safest approach from the point of view of "look to the future" can be the following approach: implementing your project on Symfony2 as a set of universal AND independent packages / bundles.
As practice shows, you should not write at once Big The project is much simpler, cheaper and (paradoxically) it is individual packages that are written faster (this manifests itself in large projects, but not in small ones).

Answer 3

You probably still want to write a project, and not study a monster called Zend2.
My first (and I think the last) project on Zend left me with negative impressions. I would advise you to choose some other, more lightweight and popular framework. There are many simpler and easier-to-learn frameworks that allow you to achieve the same thing, but with less effort.

Answer 4

the main message of all conversations is this: learn a simple framework

A small studio that doesn't know any framework? Super. Studio joomla-nists?
You think that Symfony is a simple framework. Give an example of a complex one. And what does it mean for you? More letters in archive name?
