ruzel Posted February 21, 2007 Share Posted February 21, 2007 I'm pretty handy with PHP at this point but I have only ever worked with one-off scripts and designing plugins/patches for other applications. Now, I'm all ready to set off on my first web development adventure. The app that I have in mind is hardly anything more than a user management system. The users have data that they are tracking individually but none of that is too complicated for me (DB architecture included) and I know that part has to be custom built. My question is, how do I not re-invent a user management system? It seems like some frameworks like PEAR or CAKE are intended for that, but I must be missing something, because I don't understand how to get a system out of the components/libraries they offer. Am I looking for what I want at the wrong level? Is there a "standard" user management framework out there? Am I even on the right track?

Stopofeger Posted February 22, 2007 Share Posted February 22, 2007 Hi there, If you want a user manager you can surely tap in to phpclasses.com You will find some cool classes handling them. If you want some MVC flavour then there is a user management app for cakephp. You can get it at cakeforge.org Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/39542-frameworks-noob-and-user-management/#findComment-191207 Share on other sites More sharing options...
