Strider Engine

The Open Source Extensible App Engine

by Ryan Rentfro

NOTES

• This development stack/framework is just at Beta 1 and for testing and research purposes.
• Documentation is coming in the wiki as time goes on.

INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS

We will be bringing this app to Composer and other loaders once code is stable.

In the meantime if you are ready to use Strider do the following:

Requirements: PHP 5.4 Node JS

• Run: install.sh - This will install all of the Node JS, Bower, and Grunt Packages
• Run: composer install

(Note: If you can't run composer, download composer.phar with the instructions from Composers website)

• Copy: system/core/example.config.php to system/core/config.php
• Update: Update your settings and save
• Run: Your URL in the browser (localhost/{yourapp} or whatever you've setup.

(Note: You will be in the init app under app/init/controller/init.php) (Note: You can change all this with the config file if you want, just change it and test it!)

Documentation is included in source or you can compile it with phpdoc.
