Symfony vs. Laravel: Easing The Selection of The Right PHP Framework

Selecting one right framework to suit the web development project can be difficult and tiring, even more, when myriad of similar-looking options are available with almost-all properties and features. PHP does not have one single default framework for web development (like Ruby on Rails for Ruby, or Django for Python).

Read the illustrative Symphony vs Laravel comparison.
