I tend to think of Drupal as (at least) two things: 1) A web/PHP platform/framework and 2) A CMS constructed using that framework<br><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Fri, Dec 19, 2008 at 9:51 AM, Daniel Carrera <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:daniel.carrera@zmsl.com">daniel.carrera@zmsl.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

<br>
Can you use Drupal core as a PHP development framework? Suppose you want<br>
to create a custom in-house web application which is not necessarily<br>
going to be a Drupal module. What would you use?<br>
<br>
<br>
I am the maintainer of a custom PHP application. It's quite poorly<br>
written and I'm stuck maintaining it. I have been thinking that I'd like<br>
to rewrite it from scratch. I don't *need* any third party software to<br>
rewrite it, but it occurred to me that the final product might be better<br>
if I used a good PHP development framework. So I started googling for<br>
PHP application frameworks and I hit a Wikipedia page saying that some<br>
people use Drupal as a development framework. So I thought I'd ask about<br>
that here. Any thoughts?<br>
<br>
<br>
I don't have a solid idea of what I'm looking for. I'm just looking to<br>
see what's available.<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
Daniel.<br>
