Question about Hydrogen


Hey
I'm looking into programming a website to a friend and I want to use an existing PHP framework.
I thought about using Hydrogen because its the smallest and simplest PHP framework I know, but I don't know if I should.
Is Hydrogen stable enough to use? I saw that there isn't a sable release until now and I wondered if I should use it or maybe use Yii.

Thoughts?
Thanks

It's your call, in the end :) There are a couple companies using it right now, mine included, and it's been great. The biggest thing you need to take into consideration is the Alpha notice in the README:

If you're ok with that, and the risks involved in using potentially undertested or buggy code in production are something you're willing to work with, then it's an option :). I've found (and fixed) a couple bugs in the past few months of really heavy usage on the production side, but even with those popping up now and then, there's still no better cache management solution that's this easy to implement (at least that I've found). It took our slow-ass sales dashboard to lightning speed as soon as I turned it on :)

Well, the biggest problem is that the core of hydrogen can change with every release. I wish I was confident with using Hydrogen but unfortunately I'm not. BUT I with it was not like that, it seems very light and simple framework to use and I really wanted to use it. I'v decided to use CakePHP, Hydrogen will be next with its first release
