A PHP Development Framework
This version uses more features of PHP than the previous versions, so as to provide examplars of how they can be used as the Framework is used in a module teaching server-side development with PHP.
http://catless.ncl.ac.uk/framework/ has details of installation and usage.
Version 3 introduces some breaking changes from previous versions. In particular, formdata handling is changed (though there is still a compatibility layer for the moment) and AJAX support has been completely changed. See the documentation at the website above. There are some internal structural changes as well to reduce code complexity but these are mostly internal to the framework support code.
The framework JavaScript functions currently use jQuery but I am phasing this out in preparation for the release of BootStrap 5. This is an continuing process at the moment.
To use Vagrant for The Framework, you can do so with the following commands:
vagrant up
vagrant sshThe default MySQL root password is root, you should change this. Remember this for when you are setting up The Framework.
The Vagrant VM is ready for use at http://192.168.33.10/ of your local machine.
