Phoenix Framework vs PHP-MVC: What are the differences?
What is Phoenix Framework? Most web frameworks make you choose between speed and a productive environment. Phoenix gives you both. Phoenix is a framework for building HTML5 apps, API backends and distributed systems. Written in Elixir, you get beautiful syntax, productive tooling and a fast runtime.
What is PHP-MVC? Simple and easy to understand MVC skeleton application. This project is - by intention - NOT a full framework, it's a bare-bone structure, written in purely native PHP ! The php-mvc skeleton tries to be the extremely slimmed down opposite of big frameworks like Zend2, Symfony or Laravel.
Phoenix Framework and PHP-MVC can be primarily classified as "Frameworks (Full Stack)" tools.
