PHP is one of the most popular languages for building web sites and applications. While the Yii framework came a little bit later to the PHP scene, it has taken a lot of the best practices from around the Web and put it all into a single, awesome framework for making custom web apps.
Yii 1.1 Application Development Starter is a straightforward, hands-on look at what is rapidly becoming one of the most revered frameworks for custom web application development. The Yii framework follows a tried and true object-oriented software development pattern called Model-View-Controller, making it quick and easy to build database driven applications.
This book takes you through everything you need to know to get set up and rolling with the Yii framework. You will learn how to plan and start your application and how to take it where you want to go with the tools and extensions available with the Yii framework.
This book will teach you how to build an application from the ground up, how to make sure you have everything you need in your hosting environment and get the Yii framework installed, how to create a strong relational database design, and how to set up model classes for your tables. You will also learn how to generate CRUD code to add/remove, view, and list records from your tables, then add custom routes, widgets, and extensions to make a robust application. Additionally, you will learn how to integrate authentication and role-based access permissions throughout your site. With this book, you will learn everything you need to get started with web application development using the Yii PHP framework.

Jacob Mumm is a web developer from Upstate New York specializing in PHP and JavaScript web applications. He has worked for non-profit organizations, advertising companies, and schools using tools such as Drupal, jQuery (including UI and Mobile), AngularJS, and the Yii Framework. His interests range from outdoor activities such as hiking, camping, and kayaking, to organic food and gardening as part of a holistic, sustainable lifestyle, all the while staying up to date with the latest gadgets, gizmos, and web application technologies.
One of the things he deeply enjoys is talking to people about the things for which he has the most passion. He likes to share his knowledge and experience with others. Even when incomplete, Jacob finds the act of consolidating his thoughts on a subject a great way to solidify his own understanding or to discover places where he needs to investigate further.
This book is dedicated to Joseph Fitzsimmons, because he has heard me explain quite a lot of things in recent years. Joe is a good friend who I have had the pleasure of watching and helping grow from someone fiddling with HTML to a degree-holding, up-and-coming web programmer. Joe embodies the target audience for this book, as he has the basis for technical understanding and is ready to take the next step into framework-driven development. This book was written largely by me pretending to be explaining things to Joe.

He was not only a developer, but also an architect, a project manager, and a technical consultant. Apart from participating in the realization of some technical projects, he also organized various advanced training courses for IT specialists in the companies where he was employed.

Before that, he worked on the development of applications based on Yii Framework. These include the search engine for real estate company livingthere.com and the corporate CMS system WebModulite for New York design agency Blue Fountain Media. Participation in these projects and also work on his own extension for debugging Yii applications, YiiDebugToolbar, has helped Sergey get vast experience and expert knowledge of Yii Framework.
