Cake PHP is a leading PHP–based web app development framework. When asking a question on forums or chat rooms, many Cake PHP beginners get little help from the experts. Simple questions can get a response like, “Well, just read the online manual and API.” Unfortunately, the online manual is depreciated, and who wants to absorb a programming language or framework from an API? Beginning Cake PHP will do the following:
- Lead you from a basic setup of Cake PHP to building a couple applications that will highlight Cake PHP’s functionality and capabilities without delving too deeply into the PHP language, but rather what the Cake PHP framework can offer the developer.
- Teach you to use Cake PHP by incorporating advanced features into your web development projects.
- Target beginners of Cake PHP or web frameworks in general as well as experienced developers with limited exposure to Cake PHP. A secondary audience may include developers undecided on adopting Cake PHP or business managers trying to assess the value of incorporating Cake PHP into their toolbox.
