Building ribbit in Phalcon

Hi guys, I have to make a twitter-clone in Phalcon and my knowledge is pretty close to zero. My problem is that I don't know how to start. I can find something on the internet but I don't know where exactly to put it. So, any kind of usefull code would be great, then I could look at it and see how it suppose to look. If anyone can give me answers to some of this questions that would be great too, just to give me example how to start? Database- how many tables? I made just two (Users and Posts) Connection to database? Log in?-for User and Admin Constraints? ... and...I work on windows7 and wamp... Thanks..

Then you've embarked on a long journey :]

I'd suggest taking a look at the different layouts for a project: https://github.com/phalcon/mvc These are just rule-of-thumb skeletons. Having a user and admin area usually requires the multiple examples, but you may get away with a simple layout.

This is a full-fledged project: https://github.com/phalcon/vokuro

And then there are the docs: https://docs.phalcon.io/en/latest/index.html

Please understand that Phalcon is a framework so you will have to implement quite a lot on your own. Also, what you've outlined will require a fairly long (1-3 months) learning curve. I don't think anyone here will be able to help you with a complete project, so I'd suggest asking smaller questions, one at a time as you're progressing ;]

I actually already looked at all of the links you gave me and yes, that's not enough for me to figure everything out. I think I will have to find a tutor :) thanks anyway :)

What's your timezone? I'm still learning myself, and since one only truly understands that one can explain... it could be helpful for me too :]

Central European Time zone :)

Maybe we can turn this into a broader kind of workshop, anyone interested in that?

Yes you would be cool that we did a video conference for those novices like me who want to learn more
