Requierements ------------- [](#requierements) 1. PHP >= 8.1 2. NodeJS ^20.19.0 || >=22.12.0 3. NPM >=8.0.0 Installation ------------ [](#installation) 1. Download [Composer](https://getcomposer.org/doc/00-intro.md) or update `composer self-update`. 2. Run `php composer.phar create-project --prefer-dist cakephp/app-tailwind [app_name]`. If Composer is installed globally, run ``` composer create-project --prefer-dist cakephp/app-tailwind myapp ``` To use the latest commit: ``` composer create-project cakephp/app-tailwind tailwind -s dev ``` Next, install [tailwind](https://tailwindcss.com/docs) and [vite](https://vite.dev/guide/)with npm: ``` npm install ``` Running a development server ---------------------------- [](#running-a-development-server) You can run both a PHP development server, and tailwind with on-demand rebuilds using: ``` bin/cake devserver ``` Then visit `http://localhost:8765` to see the welcome page. If you already have a webserver that supports PHP, you can run the tailwind compiler on its own with: ``` npm run dev ``` Building for production ----------------------- [](#building-for-production) To build CSS assets for production, use: ``` npm run build ``` Bake templates -------------- [](#bake-templates) This application skeleton contains a [bake templates](https://book.cakephp.org/bake/3/en/development.html#application-bake-templates)and helper templates that produce HTML using tailwind utility classes. You can and should adapt these templates to fit the needs of your application. Demo app -------- [](#demo-app) Check out the [5.x-demo branch](https://github.com/cakephp/app-tailwind/tree/5.x-demo), which contains demo migrations and a seeder. See the [README](https://github.com/cakephp/app-tailwind/blob/5.x-demo/README.md) on how to get it running. Update ------ [](#update) Since this skeleton is a starting point for your application and various files would have been modified as per your needs, there isn't a way to provide automated upgrades, so you have to do any updates manually. Configuration ------------- [](#configuration) Read and edit the environment specific `config/app_local.php` and set up the `'Datasources'` and any other configuration relevant for your application. Other environment agnostic settings can be changed in `config/app.php`. ### Health Score 38 — LowBetter than 83% of packages Maintenance89 Actively maintained with recent releases Popularity9 Limited adoption so far Community17 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity35 Early-stage or recently created project Bus Factor1 Top contributor holds 60.2% of commits — single point of failure How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
