php-skeleton

A basic php project starter kit

I found myself writing the same project boilerplate time and time again. As Web Developers our main goal is to do as little work as possible. So I decided to create this simple boilerplate to help reduce the time required when starting a new piece of code. This will give you the basic files, and will let you develop small apps easily.

Installing / Getting started

Download/clone the boilerplate from my github repo

git clone https://github.com/dhwlm/php-skeleton.git your-project-name

This will create a folder with ‘your-project-name’ and the boilerplate files inside it. Then edit the config.php file to set your own project meta information.

Contents

|-assets
  |-css
    |-stylesheet.css
  |-images
    |-content
    |-layout
  |-js
    |-common.js
|-config
  |-config.php
  |-database.php
  |-session.php
|-templates
  |-header.php
  |-footer.php
|-index.php
|-LICENSE
|-README.md

For now, I’ve included Bootstrap CSS, Bootstrap Theme, Bootstrap JS, FontAwesome & jQuery.
