scootstah Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 @CPD or anyone really, can you recommend some good MVC turorial/learning sites? Pick a framework and go from there. Pretty much all of them are MVC, and well written. For framework newbies I usually recommend CodeIgniter because it has excellent documentation and it's easy to get started with.

KevinM1 Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 I recommend Kohana if you're just starting out. It's essentially a PHP 5 only version of CodeIgniter.

dragon_sa Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 Whats a good IDE to use with that, I was just watching a vid comparing phpcake, symfony, codeigniter and zend, I like that zend had an eclipse based IDE, but am aware you can get editors to work with the others, just trying to make an executive on which path to go Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/258857-oop-recommended-templatethemepage-design-structure/page/2/#findComment-1328087 Share on other sites More sharing options...
scootstah Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 You can use any IDE for any framework, or just a text editor if you prefer. Personally, I use Eclipse with the PHP Developer Tools plugin.

KevinM1 Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 To be honest, I'm not sure. I've been doing a lot more Microsoft related development lately than anything else. I do use PhpStorm as my IDE on my dev machine, but it's not a free IDE. It is very nice, though.

Mahngiel Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 I really like Bluefish. It installs on most all operating systems (OSX, Win, and Linux) and easily permits on-server editing. For Mac people out there who dislike TextMate, there is Sublime Text 2 which is getting loads of buzz. And much like scootsah said above, CodeIgniter has a great User Guide, community, and easy learning curve.

ignace Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 I do use PhpStorm as my IDE on my dev machine, but it's not a free IDE. It is very nice, though. Yup. Hands down the best IDE out there for PHP development. The current beta (EAP) version fully supports PHP v5.4 and almost all of Subversion 1.7. They recently added support for {@inheritDoc} and they show code coverage for all lines in your files. And that's just scratching the surface. When I looked at all the supported features, my first thought was: IT'S OVER 9000!!!

ignace Posted March 17, 2012 Share Posted March 17, 2012 PHP v5.4 There aren't that many IDE's out there that fully support the new v5.4 features like traits.

dragon_sa Posted March 17, 2012 Share Posted March 17, 2012 A friend gave me an older copy of zendstudio 6.1, which I am trying to get my head around now, do I have to have wamp, xamp, mamp or the zend server installed on my system or can I use one of my centos testing servers I have on the lan?

ignace Posted March 17, 2012 Share Posted March 17, 2012 your centos server should be fine. Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/258857-oop-recommended-templatethemepage-design-structure/page/2/#findComment-1328364 Share on other sites More sharing options...
