PHP Frameworks Guide & Top 10 Best PHP Framework 2019

PHP is used by almost 83% of websites across the world and is thus one of the widely used languages for web design and development throughout the world. Rasmond Lerdoff did not develop it as a programming language. It originated simply to manage his personal website. But later the official version was released in 1997 after many months of beta tests and improvement work. PHP was earlier abbreviated as Personal Home Page but it is better known as Hypertext Preprocessor now.

The latest version PHP 7 was aimed to optimize PHP performance by refactoring the Zend Engine and make use of more compact data structures with improved cache locality while retaining near-complete language compatibility. A framework is used for its faster development, easier maintainability, fewer issues, and better security reasons.
Why use a top PHP Framework?

There are some pretty reasons for using PHP frameworks:

Organization of code and file is extremely easy
Numerous libraries and tools are available that can help in form validation, database abstraction, input/output filtering, session, and cookie handling, and managing email, calendar, and pagination etc.
Most of the frameworks follow MVC model architecture
Frameworks help out with less code which ultimately speeds up development
Frameworks come with various input and output filtering functions that add an additional security layer to protect the website against certain attacks.
Frameworks suit well to teamwork
With active community support, frameworks come with a solution for any query very quickly

Line Up of Best PHP Frameworks in 2019

  1. Laravel

It continues to be the most favored and widely used PHP framework since 2015. Laravel simplifies the authorization logic and control access to resources. It supports object-oriented libraries that come along with many pre-installed features. Tools like Artisan are included and help perform tedious programming tasks which are otherwise manually performed by most of the programmers. It also has support for MVC architecture like Symphony that ensures clarity in logic and presentation.

  1. CakePHP

The best thing about CakePHP is its 100% backward compatibility that makes it instantly upgradable. Although it does not adapt to newer PHP habits it has shown some consistency in form of stable releases. Going with Fat Models, Skinny Controller and automatic routing approach imply most of the work is automated.

  1. Zend Framework

Re-usability of code is the biggest advantage of Zend framework. Imbibing all the goodness of object-oriented approach, making use of just what you need and removing other things, a package full of tools, components, and libraries, liberty to choose own model, a large community with elaborated documentation acts as an addendum to its richness and usability.
