Should I use redbean php instead of PDO?
It seems that I heard somewhere that redbean is also safe, it kind of contains a little PDO. Is it so?
Or is redbean just made for convenience?

Answer 1

Doctrine DBAL is a normal wrapper over PDO. The most popular.
On top of Doctrine DBAL, there is also Doctrine ORM, but here you already need to have experience, it will be difficult for a beginner.

Answer 2

These are different things. From my point of view, ReadBean is extremely poorly designed and it is better to use PDO if you are not using a framework.

Answer 3

"redbean php" is made for convenience and uses PDO itself as far as I know.
