copied!<p>Bad code in all languages looks like crap. PHP just makes it easy for you to write such and provides visual clues when you have. </p> <p>The general recommendation is : <strong>learn php before using frameworks</strong>.</p> <p>They all are flawed so , you might learn bad practices from them. Plus, you would be placing all your eggs in single basket - bad long term strategy, especially if you are gonna work in php side of development.</p> <p>When you have learned php, try to make <em>your own php framework</em>. This is almost as a rite of passage. You cannot call yourself a "php developer" with a straight face if you have not written at least 3 of them. That would give you at least some understanding of what you want in a php framework.</p> <p>Oh .. and stay away from framework CakePHP and CodeIgniter which others will no doubt advertise. They are horrible, filled with bad practices. If you <em>must</em> choose a framework, then look at Symfony2 or Kohana (with huge reservations). They both have flaws , but at least they have heard about some of "best practices". Bottom line is : <strong>all php frameworks are bad. And some are worse then others</strong>.</p> <p>And learn difference between classical MVC , Model2 MVC and MVP. Most of php frameworks are willfully ignoring the distinction.</p> <p>So .. in conclusion, some thing you should learn about:</p> <ul> <li>writing a proper Model2 MVC</li> <li>Law of Demeter</li> <li>SOLID principles</li> <li>what is global state and why it's bad</li> <li>Dependency Injection</li> </ul>
