PHP5’s features and will not generate any messages from the PHP parser (i.e. it is E_STRICT compliant). This
is good as it means that any PHP parser messages in your logs come from your code, not the framework; this
will help debugging considerably! Zend also defines high quality to include documentation, so the manual for
a given component is as important as the code.
It is intended that it will be possible to develop entire applications with no external library dependencies
(unless you want them). This means that the Zend Framework is intended to be a “full stack” framework (like
Ruby on Rails or the Django Python framework) rather than a set of components. This will ensure that there
will be consistency in the way you use all the components: how they are named, how they work and how the
files are laid out in sub directories. Having said that, it is important to Zend that the Zend Framework is
modular with few dependencies between modules. This ensures that it plays well with other frameworks and All code within the Zend Framework library will be of high quality. This means that it will be written using
