Awesome work as always chinchang!

Great project. I personally prefer Python over PHP and use it a lot for most of the web applications. But when I must use PHP in some cases, I like frameworks like this.

For precisely this reason, I wrote a PHP router like this called Marg - http://github.com/vaidik/marg. Used it for 3 projects and I love the way I can keep things simple and sane. And that's why I appreciate this project as well.

Great to see sane projects like these in the PHP community.

checkout this PyCon talk as well for profiling Python programs - http://pyvideo.org/video/1770/python-profiling

Congratulations Jai! Awesome invite I must say! \m/ Super impressed!

Although this is a possible explanation, do you consume APIs using HTML forms? Probably not. And if you desperately have to consume APIs in the browser, you'd end up writing some JavaScript.

Agree. ThinkPad series is really good for Linux.

not to forget that it's going to be open source and they're going to focus on the UX as well!

+1 for the effort. But there is already a project like that which you could have used for this purpose if your purpose was not to build something like HN but build something like HN for only JS: https://github.com/SachaG/Telescope

This would have saved a lot of programming effort.

Plivo ( http://plivo.com ) has been supporting SIP for a very long time.

Deminifying is probably going to be standardized as source maps. That will (or should) eventually land up in all the browsers.

Awesome work Kush! Looking forward to using it! :)

Awesome guys! +1 For the amazing work.

Good one! Seriously! For the work you have done according to your age is tremendous. I certainly was not able to do anything even close to it when I was 15. So I'd say, hats off!!

Thanks for pointing out. I haven't seen Kohana at all actually. Will check it out soon.

Couldn't imagine getting a response so early! :o Thanks for that quick response! :)

I know about how PHP is considered uncool around here. I am not here to debate that. Personally I use Python more but I started off with PHP 3 years back and I do use it sometimes for quick prototyping. Its not all that bad for everything. Is it? I guess you'd agree.

Yes, PATH_INFO is an issue I am aware of. Thanks for that Symfony reference. I will definitely check out how they do it.

The request class can still handle other HTTP methods like HEAD / PUT / DELETE. The verb property ($request->verb) has the HTTP method used for the incoming request. Therefore, you can handle different HTTP methods as well.

Thanks once again!

When we already have so many repos of content, why another initiative towards making a new one? There is HTML5Rocks, MDN and so many others.

If you are considering PHP, do explore Yii framework. I haven't used Yii myself but I have heard a lot about its goodness as compared to other PHP frameworks.

If Ruby, RoR should be the first choice I guess. You may also want to consider Sinatra.

Hmm... Do you have plans of building something at Twitter scale? If you can foresee that, then I guess you are right when you are considering Twitter's case of dropping Ruby.

I am no Ruby-ist but I am sure Ruby is not that bad that you will have troubles scaling. You just have to understand how to scale and you can use either PHP or Ruby to apply the general concepts of scalability.
