This example application will demonstrate how to create a RESTful application with AngularJS and CakePHP.

I will try to follow the steps described in the CakePHP Blog tutorial. And I will reuse database schema of this tutorial.

AngularJS is a popular JS framework in these days, brought by Google. In this example application, AngularJS and Bootstrap are used to implement the frontend pages.

CakePHP is one of the most popular PHP frameworks in the world. CakePHP is used as the backend REST API producer.

MySQL is used as the database in this sample application.

A PHP runtime environment is also required, I am using WAMP under Windows system.

I assume you have some experience of PHP and CakePHP before, and know well about Apache server. Else you could read the official PHP introduction(php.net) and the official CakePHP Blog tutorial to have basic knowledge about PHP and CakePHP.

• Prepare project skeleton
• Bake the backend REST API
• Implement frontend CRUD with AngularJS
