Development of software applications is always a complex and a time consuming process.
But thanks to those high-end PHP frameworks, that developing an agile application has now
become easier and faster.
PHP Frameworks :
When we use the terminology “Framework” we are more often talking about Web application
framework . A web application framework is simply based on coding. If you are a programmer or a web
developer that loves coding you often choose a Web application framework for your projects.
Content Management System(CMS):
A CMS is a “Content management framework” and it is based on the modules rather than code. Anyone
can handle a CMS as it doesn’t require any coding knowledge. Of course programmers can also choose
a CMS as they can do their job faster.
