Prado : Component framework for PHP5

PRADO is a component-based and event-driven programming framework for developing Web applications in PHP 5. PRADO stands for PHP Rapid Application Development Object-oriented. The sole requirement to run PRADO-based applications is a Web server supporting PHP 5.1.0 or higher. PRADO is free. You can use it to develop either open source or commercial applications.

PRADO provides the following benefits for Web application developers:

  • Reusability – Codes following the PRADO component protocol are highly reusable. Everything in PRADO is a reusable component.
  • Easy of use – Creating and using components are extremely easy. Usually they simply involve configuring component properties.
  • Robustness – PRADO frees developers from writing boring, buggy code. They code in terms of objects, methods and properties, instead of URLs and query parameters. The latest PHP5 exception mechanism is exploited that enables line-precise error reporting.
  • Performance – PRADO uses a cache technique to ensure the performance of applications based on it. The performance is in fact comparable to those based on commonly used template engines.
  • Team integration – PRADO enables separation of content and presentation. Components, typically pages, have their content (logic) and presentation stored in different files.
