I am currently looking in to options to be used as a RESTful API backend for future projects. I have built some RESTful API's with PHP myself, but have come to the conclusion this is inefficient because I keep repeating myself.

DreamFactory seems like a good solution for what I am looking for.
I'd like to know of anyone has actually used it and come across any gotchas or just useful things to consider?

Here is what I found so far:

Pro's: It is written in PHP can use MySQL, both of which I have a lot of experience with. It's features meet my requirements: open-source, there is a professional organisation behind it, backend administration interface, add custom server side validation if needed, built in user administration, file storage options.

Con's: The community seems quite small, and I can't find a lot of user-cases.

So, what is your experience?
