An Introduction to CakePHP

Session en anglais

We will look at CakePHP, a highly popular Model-View-Controller rapid application development framework. We'll look at a few of the basic MVC concepts that CakePHP utilizes, along with how we have extended these concepts to create reusable units of code. Next, we'll look at how we can use the Bake console to generate basic CRUD-enabled applications, starting from nothing but a database schema. Finally, we'll look at why you can actually trust CakePHP to do what you expect it to do, thanks to the extensive core unit tests, and how you can easily write application-level unit tests for your own projects.
