The MVC framework – that is, the Model, View and Control of a web page – is essential to the value of a digital project. It determines how the coding works and interacts, supporting the smooth functionality of a website. And there are plenty of software platforms that build an MVC plan, all vying to be indispensable.

To help you choose the right one for your project, Show+Tell has sorted the best MVC frameworks from their lesser competitors. Read on, and up the strength, speed and agility of your development tools for the rest of the year.

Phalcon

A favourite of developers around the globe, Phalcon boasts incredibly low CPU usage, and is faster than almost anything else on the market. For a piece of software that’s only been in the game for five years or so, it has marvellous capabilities, simplifying the features of any coding assignment, no matter its size.

Using a single code-base makes things easier too. There’s access to a low-level ORM library, meaning that the knottier parts of a coding exercise are taken care of automatically, drawing on a select language database.  Phalcon is excellent for anyone new to development techniques – the ideal map for learning the ropes, and finding what works for you.

 

Zend

Balancing the MVC difficulty levels, Zend is favoured by some of the world’s biggest corporations, due somewhat to its extensive configuration methods. You’re able to create specific ‘rules’ for every object of code; they take a little while to implement but, once they’re finished, every link and site stipulation will be cross-examined, ensuring they work correctly.

With so many abilities to draw on, smaller-sized projects might flounder if they get knotted too tightly in what Zend can do. However, experts, like us, can develop a Zend-grown site on any scale, having already mastered its varying components. Choose this software for a gradually crafted, premium web interface.

 

Symfony

Having made a name for itself in the enterprise development sphere, Symfony is fantastic for managing consumer relationships, filling automated forms, and facilitating ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning). It powers some of the largest open-source projects on the web, as well as Twig, a popular coding template.

The minds behind Symfony have even fashioned a bug fixing toolbar for its applications: basically, a system that flags warnings and errors in the coding script. You won’t find a more supportive development network, either, since the company takes pride in updating its platform from user feedback.

Prototyping-image-header-1

These three frameworks are worth discovering for yourself. As opposed to standard, dime-a-dozen CRM software – which lets you drop prescribed text boxes, links and imagery in a generalised package – they lend a lot more freedom to your brand. Show+Tell can offer Zend, Symfony or Falcon scripting for your web development assignment; take us on board, and watch the particulars of your project fall into place.
