Getting Started with the Fuel PHP Framework

“Regular PHPBuilder readers are well aware of my personal
affinity for framework-driven development. These days I opt to use
a framework for every conceivable web project, no matter how minor.
Thankfully many other developers feel the same about the
framework’s amazing breadth, because a wide range of framework
solutions are available for projects large and small. For large
projects, you might consider using CakePHP, Symfony, or my personal
favorite, the Zend Framework. Smaller projects might take advantage
of one of the many microframeworks, such as Fat-Free or
Limonade.

As it happens, there are even frameworks available for those
developers wishing to take advantage of the very latest PHP
features such as closures and namespaces. Two such solutions are
the aforementioned fat-free microframework and another relative
newcomer called Fuel. Although only about 18 months old, the Fuel
project has gathered a significant head of steam which powered it
all the way through the recent official 1.0 release.
