What is a Web Application Framework
A Web Application Framework is a patterned code system consisting of common program libraries and tools providing
an organized environment for developers to program and help to create structured, maintainable code. Using a Web
Application Framework provides the following advantages:
Organized and structured programming environment creates maintainable code it will be easier to make updates
or changes to the code or have new programmer(s) or programming team(s) take over the Web Application project
maintenance.
Web Application Framework

Comparison
Promotes writing a function (or class) once and reusing it in different parts of the Web Application instead of
repeating the same function in different places. So, if there is a need to change the function, it can be done in one
place instead of having to change it in several places.
Web Application Development Process
Provides a better environment for multiple programmers to work on the Web Application Project.
Guide to Web Application Development
By separating the HTML and CSS from the PHP code, HTML and CSS designers can work on the design (refereed
to "view") folder without having to deal or tinker with the PHP code.

Most frameworks come with the common functionalities (classes, helpers, and libraries), such as database access,
form input security checks, validating forms, uploading photos, sending emails, etc. those common libraries
provide an streamlined and fast method of coding without having to rewrite code for common functions.
Provides better beta testing and bug fixing environment it promotes testing one functionality at a time, instead of
testing the whole Web Application which usually causes programmers to miss programming bugs.

What is Model View Controller (MVC)

Web Application Frameworks are organized in a structural pattern this promotes better code organization and code
reuse.
In a Model View Controller (MVC) pattern, the code is organized in three different sections:
Model data interfacing this is where the data updates are occurring the developer writes the function in
the Controller referencing a function in the Model telling it to save the user's submitted information to the database.
View user interface this is where the application interface such as HTML and CSS exist and are managed.
For example a Contact Us form.
Controller application interaction this is where the application actions are occurring such as a function that
takes the user's submitted information and processes it. s
Different types of MVC Framework

Glue Framework More Flexible
Glue frameworks provide an environment with a wide variety of components and libraries, and the programmers have
the control of the structure and flow of the program actions, and can pick and choose any library or component at their
own discretion.
In my opinion, Glue Frameworks provide a better environment for custom Web Applications with complex business
logic. In most of today's custom business Web Applications, there are a lot of complex business logic requirements
and many exceptions to the rules functions it is much easier to implement custom, complex logic into a Glue
Framework.
Below are some examples of Glue Frameworks:
Comentum Framework
Zend Framework
Domain Name System and DNS

What is Content Management System
(CMS)
Full Stack Framework Strict and Less Control

Full Stack Frameworks provide an environment with libraries and components that are integrated, forcing
programmers to use most of the libraries and components based on the framework's structural flow and guidelines.
In my opinion, Full Stack Frameworks provide a better environment for common Web Applications that do not need
much customization and do not have lots of complex business logic.
Below are some examples of Full Stack Frameworks:
CakePHP
Symfony

Drupal vs Joomla vs WordPress CMS

Comparison
Comentum used Apache Bench to test the performance of different PHP Frameworks and below are the results (this
test was run on November 9, 2012).
