Issues
This is ﬁne when you have 5 end points and simple
responses.
Lots of boiler plate code
Zend Framework 1 did not scale very well. We
constantly had to overwrite parts of the framework.

Moving from Imperative to Declarative
Programming
[4,5]
Imperative Declarative
“In computer science,
imperative programming is a
programming paradigm that
describes computation in
terms of statements that
change a program state.”
declarative programming is a
expresses the logic of a
computation without
describing its control ﬂow.”

Moving from Imperative to Declarative
Programming

Let’s use Symfony
instead, shall we?
[2]

Advantages:
Symfony allows for way more declarative programming
which allows us to write less code.
Allows us to extend way easier. And it’s actually fun.
Community is great.

array(
'page' => '{page}',
'sort' => array('{sort}'),

array(

It even integrates with the HateoasBundle:
