[edit] History

CakePHP started in 2005. The community has since grown and spawned several sub-projects.[3][4] CakePHP is not a port of Ruby on Rails to PHP, but makes use of many of its concepts.

In October 2009, project manager Garrett Woodworth and developer Nate Abele resigned from the project to focus on their own projects, including the Lithium framework (previously part of the CakePHP project). The remaining development team continued to focus on the original roadmap that was previously defined.[5]

[edit] Real-world usage

It is used by many blogs and websites. CakePHP's official site lists some of them.

[edit] Conferences

The Cake Software Foundation operates an annual Conference focusing on CakePHP called CakeFest. Initially held as a bi-annual event in 2008.

The CakeFest official site updates to host the current year's conference information.[6]
