Ask Slashdot: One Framework To Rule Them All?

New submitter ittybad writes "I work with a small web-based company, and, for some new web applications, we are looking to possibly change frameworks if it will be a benefit to our developers and our customers. We have experience with PHP's Symfony 1.4, and are not happy with what we are experiencing with Symfony 2.0. We have some Ruby guys who would love us to implement a Ruby on Rails solution, and our backend is Python powered — so maybe Django is the way to go. So, I ask you, Slashdotters, what web framework do you find to be the best and why? Why would you avoid others?"

    One tool to rule them all: Assembly.

      The questioner asked for the "best" framework without defining what best meant, so we can pick whatever criteria we want.

      Assembly is best if you want highest speed and smallest memory size but don't care about development time.

      Personally I would write everything in Perl, because my criterion would be highest job security.

    Sure. And a chisel can be used as a screwdriver.
