Yii Framework Review

I have been recently working on a project involving the Yii PHP Framework and i am really impressed with the features and functionalities offered by Yii. http://www.yiiframework.com

The Latest Yii version at the time of writing this post is Yii 1.1.10


- Creates a skeleton php application using console commands. The skeleton application is fully functional with login, contact form etc.

- It can really speed up development by writing the CRUD code automatically from your database objects.

- It follows the MVC framework of web application design and can create the Model classes automatically.

- Plenty of extensions available that can be plugged into the application.

- Good documentation and screen-casts available on the yii website.

- Plenty of learning resources available to kick start a new development project.
