Laravel, from my own experience is full of deep rooted magic, and assumptions. Also it throws SOLID out the window.

We use Symfony at work and we turned off the annotations package, use XML mapping for our models.

Of course, Symfony and Doctrine do have some frustation points.



I have the same experience. Laravel is way too magical for me.

I use Symfony for quite some time and at one point I stopped using Doctrine data mapper. The DBAL and the query builder are enough.


If it were up to me, it would all be SQL queries. Maybe even use the library I rebuilt - https://github.com/ellisgl/GeekLab-GLPDO2
