    Hello,

    We are creating a huge social network aiming a niche (gaming/anime). Our website is almost done but now we need some improvements. We are senior webdeveloppers so we are looking for a real expert with the following technologies :

    - CakePHP 2.X
    - MySQL

    Optional but appreciated skills : NoSQL (Mongodb / Redis)

    You will need solid knowledge of PHP5, MVC, OOP.


    • We are looking for a real expert with CakePHP 2.X and we'll ask you a controller + a model written with CakePHP 2.0, thus we can judge your skills.
    • We are looking for an independent worker.
    • Students are accepted, but you must provide a strong motivation

    Send me a private message for more informations.

    ===================================================================

    We are also open to funders, if you want to invest money in our website (and have a cut in shares) send me a private message. It's something really big.

    @Airknight, I never felt comfortable with the idea of working with frameworks like CakePHP / SmartyPHP / CodeIgniter / Akelos (which in my opinion is the best b/c it supports everything from php4 to Caching and Ajax) anyway, these frameworks are meant to give you a lower number of headaches while coding, but, never meant to give you the processing speed boost. Because it takes around ~40ms just for instantiating the framework, then, it starts processing the request.

    Thats the reason why I've quit using frameworks for my personal browser game, which is also a huge project that I'm developing for a year and a half now. In the end, I got 2.7 milliseconds for the main page of the game to be processed rather than 45~ ms for the Akelos/CodeIgniter (about 30, for it's lack of support about auth modules, templates and ajax / ORM objects.)

    Still, I can easily understand my code, because it's very well MVC style written, without combining php with html because I've chosen to do a jQuery Templating system via regEX, and the only part when php is nested with html, is on the client side, where jQuery does it's job. Obviously it's more work to be done in JavaScript, but, jQuery does it easy.

    So, conclusion, I was really excited someone is looking for support in big projects, but I've been dissapointed when I've seen you're working with CakePHP (even the 2.x version) which supports PHP 5.2.x only.

    Hi !
    Thanks,

    Yeah of course for a web based mmo you don't need a framework. But for web oriented project you don't want to reinvent the wheel, why create an AuthComponent when it's the same thing for all sites around the world ?

    Take a look on this : http://symfony.com/why-use-a-framework

    May be CI wasn't suited for your project ? Or for you ? May be you could try Symfony or CakePHP ? Nevermind, thanks for your post ;)

    The main reason I like doing everything from scratch is because when security exploits are found in any of these frameworks, I can sleep well at nights knowing that I don't need to shut down my website untill they come with a security update. The second second reason is about the optimisation, the time for the processing, and since I'm doing a jQuery Templating system, I don't really need frameworks that work with templates, because I don't nest up PHP with HTML.

    But hey, it's just an opinion, you're free to use whatever you think it suits your needs. Again, best wishes and I'm eager to see what's coming up.
