Selecting and using a framework is essential.
The initial part of the development life cycle in an application consists of choosing the technologies that should be used. A framework comes with lots of already implemented functionalities, so the dedicated software development team can focus their efforts on business logic. For example, a framework may already include login, database connection logic, session management, pagination, QA testing tools, among many others.
Frameworks require web application developers to use design patterns such as MVC, singleton solutions, among others, to ensure maintainability and robustness of development.
Most Frameworks are free and supported by communities that provide documentation. New versions of the framework are being constantly published to expand the set of functionalities.
One of the potential issues of using frameworks may be the selection of a proper framework itself because developers will have to spend time learning how to use it and configure it properly. Also, you should avoid choosing frameworks that are less used or that most of the development team doesn’t know; otherwise, it may impact delivery times of the development cycle due to the learning curve.
There are frameworks for many programming languages. For example, for PHP we have Laravel or Symfony; for Frontend Web development using MVC pattern on Javascript we have AngularJS; for building mobile app development on Javascript, there is XUI, etc.
This may improve your project’s performance, maintainability, security, and scalability. But, remember, it is important to analyze the framework market, and determine the right frameworks only based on provided functionalities but also the maturity of the framework and possible community support.
