Hi, I am a web developer and very new to cakephp [and PHP frameworks as such]. I went through [and implemented] the blog tutorial at http://book.cakephp.org/view/219/Blog and also went through the resource at IBM developer works [http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/ opensource/tutorials/os-php-cake1] and I like it so far.
I intend to build an application [recipe book] with the following requirements. SEEKING ADVICE - IS CAKEPHP A GOOD FIT FOR THIS APPLICATION? Base Requirements : 1. Need static pages - index, about, faq, privacy, terms 2. Need a contact form 3. Basic set of 20 recipes are accessible by any one [even unregistered users] 4. Beyond which, users will have to sign up - Need paypal/ CreditCard payment gateway integrations. Users will pay a monthly fee. Users should be able to pay for 1 month or 3 months during signup. 5. The advanced 50 recipes are available only to signed up users. 6. Send reminder emails when membership is about to expire. Advanced requirements : 7. Need an affiliate system in place 8. Need a coupon code system, where users get discounts when signing up Is cakephp a good fit for these requirements? Any pointers on source code, sample similar applications, plugins is highly appreciated. How long does it take to build this application? Ballpark estimate of Expected Development Time? P.S. - if some one is interested in taking up this project [freelance], drop a quote. [Not sure if there is a separate thread for this] Thanks, B Check out the new CakePHP Questions site http://cakeqs.org and help others with their CakePHP related questions.
