What is DotKernel

• DotKernel is the dotBoost’s framework from which to start a new application, based on Zend Framework.
• DotKernel is is a framework, using a simplified MVC , for internal use of our company.
• DotKernel will not alter in any way ZF code, and is built upon an unmodified Zend Framework version.

List of DotKernel classes which extend ZF:

1. Template system.

Using Zend_View, which is an interface, we can write our own view class implementing that interface.
We implement our own good-old PHPLIB-style template.

2. Custom Front Controler.

ZF’s default routing like “/controller/action/param1/value1″ need to be customized.
We define our own routing rules and add them to the Front Controller (see ZF Front Controler).
We use some custom routes on our projects.
