AskAboutPHP.com: First look at CakePHP
In a recent post to the Ask About PHP blog, there’s a quick “first look” at the CakePHP framework from a beginner’s perspective.
Finally, I found some time to take CakePHP for a spin. I’ve heard some really good things about it, and I’ve been trying to get some time to try it out. I installed the framework and went through the tutorial on building a simple blog application. I have to say I’m quite impressed.
The post briefly introduces the Model-View-Controller method the framework follows and shows some of the features/benefits it brings with it – the low entry level, its speed, and whether or not it makes for a good “first framework” for other developers.
