TotalStudio CMS Website Skeleton

A skeleton for creating web applications with CakePHP 5.x.

The framework source code can be found here: cakephp/cakephp.

Installation

1. clone the project skeleton (if you read this you already did it):)
2. Download Composer or update composer self-update.
3. Run composer install.
4. rename the app_local.example.php to app_local.php
5. start the cake server bin/cake server -p 8765
6. visit http://localhost:8765/install to see the welcome page.

Update

Since this skeleton is a starting point for your application and various files would have been modified as per your needs, there isn't a way to provide automated upgrades, so you have to do any updates manually.

Configuration

Read and edit the environment specific config/app_local.php and set up the 'Datasources' and any other configuration relevant for your application. Other environment agnostic settings can be changed in config/app.php.

Layout

The app skeleton uses Milligram (v1.3) minimalist CSS framework by default. You can, however, replace it with any other library or custom styles.
