FuelPHP vs Grails: What are the differences?
Developers describe FuelPHP as "A fast, lightweight, community driven PHP5 framework". FuelPHP is a fast, lightweight PHP 5.4 framework. In an age where frameworks are a dime a dozen, We believe that FuelPHP will stand out in the crowd. It will do this by combining all the things you love about the great frameworks out there, while getting rid of the bad. On the other hand, Grails is detailed as "An Open Source, full stack, web application framework for the JVM". Grails is a framework used to build web applications with the Groovy programming language. The core framework is very extensible and there are numerous plugins available that provide easy integration of add-on features.
FuelPHP and Grails can be categorized as "Frameworks (Full Stack)" tools.
FuelPHP and Grails are both open source tools. It seems that Grails with 2.48K GitHub stars and 945 forks on GitHub has more adoption than FuelPHP with 284 GitHub stars and 57 GitHub forks.
