How to Install CakePHP in XAMPP

Introduction

CakePHP is open source for a PHP framework built around Model-View-Controller (MVC). We started to create a small application that would perform some basic Create, Read, Update, Delete (CRUD) operations on our database.

  • Model: It manages the data. It stores into and retrieves from the database.

  • View: It is for the presentation and is responsible for displaying the data provided by the model in a specific format.

  • Controller: Handles the model and view layers to work together.
