Small footprint php framework suggestions?

By the way, as a general answer, you can find a great amount of small php frameworks on Ohloh : https://ohloh.net/tags/framework/php You can then select the one you like based on previewing the source, the documentation quality, the number of users that use it etc.

You could always try MicroMVC. Looks like a small project created by SO user Xeoncross. No idea how good/complete it is...but it could be fun.

For this sort of sized site (and for somewhat larger ones too) I'd just use a template system and not worry about an MVC framework - even the lightest are lot of overhead for a few pages. I'd highly recommend TinyButStrong. It's simply superb - perfect separation of code and design, powerful but not overly complex, and integrates perfectly with Dreamweaver so you, or your designer, can design templates wysiwyg.

I've had a fair bit of success combining this with XAJAX, which isn't one of your more popular AJAX frameworks, but has some nice features. The beauty of just using a template system like TBS though is you can pull in whatever, and just whatever, libraries you need. Personally I dislike abstracting out SQL, but there's a fair number of stand-alone libraries to choose from if you so desire.

Fari MVC Framework Homepage: https://ohloh.net/p/fari-mvc Source: code.google.com/p/fari-mvc/source/browse... Note: it's mine, but that doesn't mean it's not small footprint php framework ;).

Oh and it contains a demo app that works from a flat file database so you can test it pretty easily. – Radek Nov 10 '09 at 19:49.

Fat-Free Framework is self-contained in a single 55KB file. If you want more features, there are plugins to extend it.

I did come across this framework sometime in the past year. It really seems like it would do the job, But I'm not doing any php lately, and I probably will not get a chance to test it anytime soon. – Daniel Aug 17 at 22:26.

Doesn't really answer the question... but if CI has a bit too much bloat for you, maybe you can try Kohana, which is a bit less bloated than CI (started as a fork).

3 CakePHP contains even more bloat than CodeIgniter. – Sbm007 Nov 10 '09 at 19:29 Cake is heavier than CI! – Buggabill Nov 10 '09 at 19:29.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
