Cake3 Blog Resource, is a resource to help people starting with Cake3.

Actually, I have developed this blog to try Cake3 and for my needs (personal blog), and I have decided to release it to help people with Cake3, so there is probably some custom configurations/functions that only fit my needs.

It is not recommended to do a website with Cake3 until the first stable Cake3 version will be released.

If you need to install to try a function or any other things, just follow the steps bellow.

• 📦 Composer
• 📦 All requirements for CakePHP : list here

Steps to install :
