I have been coding apps with PHP for several years. But I am getting more
involved in larger and more complicated PHP applications and want to use
best practices.

I use Eclipse's PHP IDE. I doubt I am using it to its full extent but I want
to learn more about, and compare and contrast, frameworks versus IDE versus
templating systems and MOST IMPORTANTLY learn what is going to save me time.

I know technically the IDE is the tool in which you code but there are
frameworks associated with IDE - for example the PHP IDE for Eclipse.

Can you use a any framework within any templating system?

I want to learn now what is going to save time later. Please help
straighten me out amd let me know what libraries, frameworks and/or
templating systems you think saves you time.

Many thanks!
