That’s a problem I often thought about. I discovered symfony 2 years ago, when it was 0.4 still, and since then I loved it. But hey, if you don’t know anything else, how do you know for sure that’s the best?

At this time for me, it was anyway very better of my long php3/c++cgi time. At least I got some direction, from the beginning, on how to organize my code. When I was younger, i developped code with my own pseudo-frameworks (in php3, yeah i know that was mostly hackish), but with my today’s experience with symfony, I’m beginning to think that behind the fact it helped me a lot in development, it showed me some clean design pattern, some thing i will stick on for ever, just because that’s making my life easier.

If tomorrow django 2.0 comes out and kicks asses, I’ll maybe stick to it. And if Rails 2 is even better I will too. But as symfony 2.0 will rocks them all, why am I wondering? well… yeah, I’m Symfoniac. are you?
So I am to come back to the original subject. Am I symfoniac? well in a sense, yes, but it’s more the way symfony made me think I get reward from. I could maybe have got this from Django, CakePHP, RoR, or even some weird stuff like jelix, but my experience in the early atempts in clean web developments were to come with symfony.
