"Akelos Framework": PHP-Port von "Ruby on Rails"

Das "Akelos Framework" ist eine PHP4-Port der "Ruby on Rails" Entwicklungstools, die eine schnellere Entwicklung von Web-Anwendungen versprechen. Das Hauptiel ist dabei, dem Entwickler bei der Erstellung mehrsprachiger Datenbank-basierender Web-Lösungen nach dem Model View Controller (MVC) Paradigma zu helfen. Das Motto lautet "Conventions statt Configuration".

Dazu der Autor Bermi Ferrer auf seiner englischsprachigen Web-Site: "Ruby on Rails is a fantastic web development framework backed with a highly qualified community, which produces great functionalities and documentation. Although we strongly recommend you learning Ruby, many experienced PHP developers/shops do not have the time/resources to get productive with a new programming language.

We decided to build the framework after considering several alternatives. Although we loved Ruby on Rails we needed a framework that allowed our company to distribute standalone scripts that could run on cheap shared hosting without modifications. For this reason we decided to go with PHP4 and make it compatible with PHP5.

We considered other PHP ports of Ruby on Rails, but we could not find all we needed on them. One feature that we needed on the core was internationalization and Unicode support, so we decided to roll our own framework trying to keep most of the original rails interface so most of its documentation could work for it."
