Is yii so easy that the job opportunities section is dead?
Could it be that it’s so easy to work on that nobody needs developers? I executed the shell script to create CRUD stuff and it blew me away how potentially easy it can be to use Yii. I couldn’t even sleep that night as my mind was racing with ideas. I’ll see how i feel after i finish the blog tutorial.
If you need only CRUD operations on your site, then you are right 
Sophisticated applications need much time to develop them, even with Yii and existing extensions.
But thanks Yii, it helps a lot 
Serious businesses haven’t found Yii or have decided not to use it because of lack of strong background, massive community, prestigeous company, etc.
Others may not need permanent (and paid) help and engineer effort.
Stay tuned, I firmly believe this section will be full of opportunities.
