[Flow] TYPO3 Flow for a new project?

[Dominique Feyer]

Flow is bit higher level than symfony … and Flow use Convention over configuration, so with symfony you will have more configuration. Flow try to use sane default, and for my point of view it’s faster to code in Flow because of that. You don’t have different way to configure a specific thing … so you projet is more consistent and it’s easier to work in a large team and keep this consistancy. 

The Security Framework in Flow a a really powerful feature that can save you tons of code. 

To compare with Zend … for me zend is more a big tool box than a real framework, but the configuration can be messy (or is messy). Even for simple thing you need a lots of configuration. During T3CON13 a guys from Zend give a talk named « Build a blog application in 45 minutes » … and he failed … because during the talk some miss configuration broke their application. Doing the same thing with Flow can be done is a more natural way, create a domain, a repository, a controller, a view, some routing … and that just work.

I think that the choice between Symfony and Flow is not easy … but Zend is not an option for me. 

And if you use Flow … maybe you can use Neos to manage the CMS side of the project … and that’s really cool ;)

Hi all!  
I'm planning with my team a new project, in which we need to use a  
framework.  
I proposed TYPO3 Flow and someone Symphony or Zend.  

How could I convince the team to learn and use TYPO3 Flow? What are the  
differences vs other framework that make TYPO3 Flow the best choice?  

Thank you for the help.  
Roberto
