Creating a To-Do List Application

Abstract

Now that you’ve set up Cake on your own computer, it’s time to begin building applications. In this chapter, you’ll create a to-do list application in Cake using the built-in scaffold feature. This is the simplest approach to application building in Cake. It will only require creating a couple of plain-text files as well as a database with a couple of tables. You won’t deal too much with the design but rather let Cake generate all of your HTML output.
