CakePHP is a rapid development framework for PHP which uses commonly known design patterns like Associative Data Mapping, Front Controller, and MVC. Our primary goal is to provide a structured framework that enables PHP users at all levels to rapidly develop robust web applications, without any loss to flexibility. You can install CakePHP into your project using Composer. If you're starting a new project, we recommend using the app skeleton as a starting point.
