A quick tour of the features
----------------------------

[](#a-quick-tour-of-the-features)

Propel has some nice features you should know about:

- It's a fast and easy way to manage your database;
- It provides command line tools for generating code (well documented with an IDE-friendly syntax);
- It's very flexible: you can simply extend Propel;
- It uses PDO (PHP Data Objects) so it allows you to use the RDBMS of your choice (MySQL, SQLite, PostgreSQL, Oracle and MSSQL are supported);
- Propel is an open-source project which is [well documented](http://propelorm.org/Propel/documentation/).
