symfony-framework-logo

The company behind the two popular PHP frameworks Symfony and Silex just raised 7 million dollars to “expand their open-source activities”. This is really awesome and will definitly have a heavy (positive) impact on the development of both framework (and further stuff). And just for comparison: Most other frameworks are made and maintained by some people for free in their free-time!

According to SensioLabs’s founder Fabien Potencier the company will hire up to 60 new developers who will work on new CRM and CMS tools, beside that an own cloud-hosting service is in the making. Apply for a private beta account at insight.sensiolabs.com.

We should keep an eye on Symfony, Silex and the Insight hosting service, looks like big things are coming.

    Silex deserves. It is one of the most interesting micro frameworks. It has some good components and you can rapidly create a micro app using it. Also, hosting Silex is easy as well, as mentioned in this tutorial: https://www.cloudways.com/blog/install-silex-on-cloud/
