For developers who want to use Yii, it is very important to know about object-oriented programming (POO), because Yii is a fully object-oriented framework.
2. For which solution Yii is best?
Yii is a generic web programming framework that can be used to develop virtually all types of web applications.

Like most PHP frameworks, Yii is a MVC framework.
Yii stands out from other PHP frameworks in that it is efficient, feature-rich and well documented. Yii is carefully designed to fit serious web applications since its inception. It is neither a by-product of any project, nor a conglomerate of third-party work. It is the result of the rich experience of its authors in Web development and the research and reflection of applications and the most popular Web programming frameworks.
