Book Review: CakePHP Application Development
Sep 09, 2008 @ 12:51:29

Chris Hartjes has posted a review of one of the many PHP books that Packt Publishing has to offer - "CakePHP Application Development".

A few weeks ago I was approached by Pakt Publishing and asked if I was interested in reviewing the recent CakePHP book 'CakePHP Application Development' by Ahsanul Bari and Anupom Syam. [...] Naturally, several books about the framework have been published in the past few months, and I can't think of a better book to recommend to people interested in learning the framework than this one.

He looks at some of "The Good" (like the sample applications and examples the book provides) and some of "The Bad" where it falls a bit short (like the lack of good server config information and no mention of the built-in testing functionality) to the obvious "Ugly" - that CakePHP, like any other framework out there, is a constantly moving target that's hard to pin down in a book that takes months to write and print.
