It's my code, it's THE framework, it's my customization, and almost everything I got asked to do It's already done, everything else is a contribution for my libraries.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3825636150904136311.post-10983957451428409182010-09-13T15:10:17.503+02:002010-09-13T15:10:17.503+02:00provided that you are already familiar with any CM...provided that you are already familiar with any CMS package :-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3825636150904136311.post-65833734598544433512010-09-13T14:39:47.389+02:002010-09-13T14:39:47.389+02:00Well, if you used WP you would spend like 2 hours ...Well, if you used WP you would spend like 2 hours on the layout, and another hour on finding gallery and guestbook plugins and installing them. No db designing, no coding, no reinventing a wheel. I don't think it can be any faster but if you prefer Symfony and you feel more comfortable with it - it's ok with me :) I'm just damn too lazy. Using Sf for anything smaller than a portal I feel like shooting a fly with an RPG ;) But it's just me.devFactorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15330071101546368535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3825636150904136311.post-1352099148019028252010-09-13T13:46:47.170+02:002010-09-13T13:46:47.170+02:00I hear you, spending as much time I we do with sym...I hear you, spending as much time I we do with symfony even a small website is easier with it than WP.Rocinantehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07712636596816387684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3825636150904136311.post-91267107933685695952010-09-13T12:06:07.221+02:002010-09-13T12:06:07.221+02:00Thank you for the discussion!

As I wrote, I was given a full, well-prepared layout, so there's no need for me to focus on the layout.<br /><br />It's true that using a CMS gives you many more features. But if you're given a list of functionalities (and the webpage is really simple) symfony is a better (faster) choice for an experienced symfony developer. At least in this case. It all depends on the project size.Tomaszhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08377176323730229843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3825636150904136311.post-19466027486483961122010-09-13T11:38:00.678+02:002010-09-13T11:38:00.678+02:00For small sites Wordpress is the best choice.

I used it a few times already and it saved me a lot of time. I wouldn't use Symfony because when doing small websites I don't want to worry about the insides or play with the code. Using WP I can focus on the visual side of the work.<br /><br />For bigger projects Diem is the way to go.devFactorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15330071101546368535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3825636150904136311.post-80495458564348556352010-09-13T11:20:46.789+02:002010-09-13T11:20:46.789+02:00No. It is just few subpages with dynamic content, ...No. It is just few subpages with dynamic content, a guestbook and a gallery.Tomaszhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08377176323730229843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3825636150904136311.post-44160995318673086862010-09-13T08:54:02.418+02:002010-09-13T08:54:02.418+02:00did you use diem, sympal or apostrophe plugins for...did you use diem, sympal or apostrophe plugins for the cms part?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
