From mvc,dao/activerecord,widgets,caching, hierarchical Rbac,web services, to theming, i18n and l10n,yii provide almost everything you need for today's Web 2.0 application development. In fact, Yii is one of the most efficient PHP frameworks.

Advantages

Pure OOP

For large-scale Web applications

Easy to use model

The development speed is fast, the operation speed is also fast. Excellent performance and rich functionality

Use the command-line tool.
