Cake is a rapid development framework for PHP which uses commonly known design patterns like ActiveRecord, Association Data Mapping, Front Controller and MVC. Our primary goal is to provide a structured framework that enables PHP users at all levels to rapidly develop robust web applications, without any loss to flexibility.

Cake, Yum

    by jeffreyweston

Cake will make your php life easier. That said, like all OO php, the stack can be relatively heavy. So get familiar with a good opcache and some of the caching tools in cake (or memcache). IMHO go straight to 1.2 which is an RC2. Also take a look at the 'bakery' http://bakery.cakephp.org/ which will give a leg up with helpful components, etc. All in all cakephp is one of the best organized and executed php projects I've used.

CakePHP saves the Day

    by MSeven

A Year ago, our development structure was a mess.
Switching over to CakePHP massively improved out coding speed an quality, with minor training time.
No Framework is perfect, and CakePHP is still maturing, but overall it provided a very solid base for all the projects we have used it for, and pretty much every Programmer that was introduced to it continued using it on his own projects afterwards.
