Intellectsoft switches to new PHP framework

PHP department of Intellectsoft switches over to new framework – Symfony 2 which embodies a significant evolution when compared with its first version. Symfony, being an internationally recognized, stable open-source development environment, is claimed to be the most popular PHP project on github.com. Symfony is supported by SensioLabs, a company with over 13 years of web development experience, and by a vibrant international community, which ensure its longevity. By the way, Symfony has an extremely avid community on Twitter.

The framework stands out for the variety of new ideas and features it offers to developers, thorough robust architecture and easy-to-use work environment. Finally, by adopting de facto standards, Symfony does not confine developers to its environment, but allows them to choose the software components that you want to use. Available in version 2.0, Symfony already has, among the hundreds of sites and applications developed on its platform, prestigious references, such as Yahoo!, Dailymotion, Opensky.com, Exercise.com and even phpBB.

Along with Symfony2 PHP developers in Intellectsoft use Doctrine2 ORM for data persisting. Actually, it is nearly always used with Symfony2, though it is not obligatory.

All in all, the perfect combination of these new cutting-edge technologies allows Intellectsoft’s high scaled team delivering robust structured, maintainable and scalable applications with elegant architecture.
