Bitextender backed Agavi is a very secure and helpful open source (LGPL) MVC framework with the core development being headed by David Zülke (Wombert) and Felix Gilcher (certainly in the IRC channel!). It can take some time to get the hang of the framework so I have put together all the resources I use or have used to help you get started.
Documentation Resources:
- Official Agavi Tutorial - Incomplete at time of writing
- API Documentation
- Agavi Cookbook
- Official Agavi FAQ
- Unofficial Agavi FAQ – Very helpful
- Package Docs in SVN – You need to dig around these folders in the SVN source code viewer of Trac (some of it is also old)
- Veikko Mäkinen’s Blog: http://blog.veikko.fi/tagged/agavi
- David Zülke’s Blog: http://blog.wombert.de/tagged/agavi (take a look through the PHPLondon talk and learn of the Mike controversy mentioned in one of my previous posts! Plus lots of Agavi tips as well of course.)

- Agavi Support page IRC is very helpful (be patient when waiting for a response though)
