PhrazIt focused more on building software and proving out the business model than on frameworks or languages per-se. Their approach is different than that of the other two in that they mostly let the technology choice speed development and get out of their way.
PhrazIt spoke about the following technologies
- PHP is the old standby web programming language. It comes free with any Linux installation, is easy to learn, has hooks to backend databases, and has many libraries and sample code available throughout the internet. Primarly a scripting language, PHP in recent years has added support for object orientation with classes.
- jQuery - is a great swiss army knife library for AJAX development.
- Yahoo UI - A set of UI widgets, layout management and libraries for web development.
- MySQL is their primary database platform.
