I’m new at Yii. I have a very big project, and i will rebuild the hole system, a lot of new features etc. I have research frameworks and i made my decision - Yii is the coolest thing i have ever seen. Top 1 reason is performance I have developed 8 years with my own system - and i feel it’s time to change everything…
But there is a good question…
Project development time is around 8 months. I have zero knowledge about yii. And my question is: Is there any point to wait for Yii 2 and put all my forces to groundwork, or should i start firing now with Yii 1.1 When Yii 2 is coming, i do no want to develop again and again.
I guess Yii 2 need 6 months for production release and also you will need time to learn, there are lots of details. I’m in same situation too. I have five e-commerce sites, I want to rewrite them with Yii. I decide to start Yii 1 and whene Yii 2 is ready, then go on Yii 2. Development never ends. Besided, you are new to Yii, even if Yii 2 is ready you will need ask or search lots of things but there will be no suffient resource or knowledge for Yii 2.
