I hope I am posting this in right area as I couldn't find anything suitable for the post. Mods Please feel free to move it to more appropriate area if they feels so.
Anyway I had started working on
Django (Python) since June and that was my first tryst with any kind of web framework. I had read alot about RoR and how it is changing paradigm of web development and I really wanted to test atleast one framework.
So after working with Django, my conclusion is this - They are powerful but building websites on them is not as rosy as people say and more importantly, using a framework for a simple website design is not a very smart thing to do even if you are comfortable in it. Using a web framework is like building a CMS first and than building a site on it. There are people who have build 10 page site on RubyonRails and feels they have done something really great! Well they could had done the same thing in just 20 minutes with frontpage.
Anyway the point of the post is, I will still recommend using CMS over web frameworks unless you are looking for very scalable solution and aiming very big which 99% of webmasters don't do it. Put Value on your time and use it carefully instead of wasting time on building ordinary site using some framework, instead use wordpress/drupal and build a useful site
I have also put a study of PHP webframeworks on [link removed]my blog which you may like to see to get better insight into them. I havent' used them that well mind you, there are just too many nowdays...Everyday a new PHP framework comes
