Why Zoop?
Zoop is an object oriented PHP framework. Zoop is modeled after the MVC design pattern. It is a high performance, secure, and scalable framework for PHP. It is designed to be very fast and efficient and very nice for the programmer to work with. Zoop has been built in a modular way so it is both easily extensible, and light. It has been in development and production use since 2001 and is quite mature.
