Yii Framework

Yii 2 is a modern framework designed to be a solid foundation for your PHP application.

It is fast, secure and efficient and works right out of the box pre-configured with reasonable defaults.
The framework is easy to adjust to meet your needs, because Yii has been designed to be flexible.
