Acknowledging or citing Yii is as important as direct contributions.

In presentations

If you are giving a presentation or talk featuring work that makes use of Yii and would like to acknowledge it, we suggest using our logo on your title slide.

In projects

If you are using Yii as part of an OpenSource project, a way to acknowledge it is to use a special badge in your README:

If your code is hosted at GitHub, you can place the following in your README.md file to get the badge:
