Conceptually Yii1 and Yii2 are quite similar, however Yii2 runs on newer PHP versions and utilizes namespaces, traits etc. Yii2 has also support for dependency injection through $container singleton available after initializing the framework.
The latest version 1.1. 23 was released in December 2020. In May 2011 the developers decided to use new PHP versions and fix architectural shortcomings, resulting in version 2.0. In May 2013 the Yii 2.0 code went public, followed by the first stable release in October 2014.
Yii is the first choice of the developers over the other PHP frameworks because of its developer-friendly features. Its features are secure, reliable, and easy to configure. It is ideal for websites and web apps that are having high traffic for example web portals, eCommerce portals, or CMS Websites.
