What is Top 10 (and more) core contributors?
CakePHP is a rapid development framework for PHP that uses the Model-View-Controller (MVC) architecture and common design patterns like Associative Data Mapping. It provides a structured foundation for building robust web applications quickly, enabling developers to reduce boilerplate code and focus on business logic. The framework is designed to be flexible enough for complex applications while remaining accessible to PHP users at all skill levels.
PHP developers building web applications who want a full-stack framework with strong conventions, built-in ORM, and security features to accelerate development. It suits both beginners learning MVC patterns and experienced teams needing a maintainable, scalable codebase.
Developers choose CakePHP for its balance of rapid development capabilities and long-term maintainability, thanks to its convention-over-configuration approach, comprehensive documentation, and active community. It offers a batteries-included experience with built-in tools for security, database abstraction, and testing, reducing the need for third-party dependencies.
