I googled it and found nothing of much interest , right now me & my Team know/partially know ( Codeigniter, Yii) and also Django (Python Framework) , now after working with codeigniter for past 1 year we have noticed that we are not that efficient and we still have to code most of the stuff( comment system, image upload, rating, voting etc. ) repeatedly ( you can call it progressive enhancement ) .
Now , we have started development in Yii and it's superb we are experiencing it but what I find is that I love Python more than PHP , but due to deadlines and time shortage , I cant ask my team to switch to it now . SO, what I'm trying to do is convince myself that which framework among these 3 ( Codeigniter, Yii, Django ) would give us fastest delivery times ?
My personal opinion is that Yii & Django are somewhat equal but due to avilability of large no. of Packages [Django Packages][1] , we will be able to develop quicker and faster , although Yii has it's extensions too [Yii Extensions][2] but at this time there are not many and only few of them are highly stable , while others have bugs still (Maybe all this is due to my higher knowledge of PHP & PHP frameworks than Python frameworks & Django ) so, I would be glad if someone who has some practical experience transitioning from PHP to Python based frameworks could shed some light on this !
Edit: I'm looking for a practical response from a programmer who has developed in both frameworks Django vs. Yii ( or has atleast played with them ) and he/she can verify that development time for a typical CMS/Portal/Review Website/Digg clone ... type Web App takes less time in one than other , as Time is what I worry about learning the language / features/ benefits are not that important , scalability too ius a matter of proper DB optimization and other architectural changes , also i would like to highlight that I'm not considering Ruby on Rails as I dont want to learn ruby just for a framework , rather I'm interested in Django vs. Yii in terms of shortest time to market given all other factors ( manpower/skill set/DB design) equal , Kindly help , I have been thinking about this for a week now !
