Phalcon vs. Spark Framework vs. Wasp vs. python-sql Comparison Chart

A full-stack PHP framework delivered as a C-extension. Its innovative architecture makes Phalcon the fastest PHP framework ever built. Developers do not need to know C to use Phalcon. Its functionality is exposed as PHP classes and interfaces under the Phalcon namespace, ready to be used. Zephir/C extensions are loaded together with PHP one time on the web server's daemon start process. Classes and functions provided by the extension are ready to use for any application. The code is compiled and isn't interpreted because it's already compiled to a specific platform and processor. Thanks to its low-level architecture and optimizations Phalcon provides the lowest overhead for MVC-based applications. Build single and multi-module applications with ease and pleasure. Using the file structure, scheme, and patterns you already know. Writing REST servers and applications has never been easier, with no boilerplate, and simple services that fit in one file.

Wasp is a full-stack web application framework that allows developers to build apps faster with less boilerplate code. It integrates React for frontend development, Node.js for backend, and Prisma for database management, enabling developers to focus on the essential parts of their app. The framework’s declarative syntax and simplified configuration mean that developers can describe their app's high-level structure in a .wasp file, and the system automatically handles much of the repetitive work, including routing, authentication, and API management. Wasp's goal is to simplify app development without sacrificing flexibility, making it ideal for building MVPs and production-ready applications.
