Searching for a Kohana Beginner's Tutorial for PHP
I am going to try to build a PHP website using a framework for the first time, and after some research here and there, I've decided to try to use Kohana
I downloaded the source from their website, and ran the downloaded stuff on my web server, and was then greeted with a 'Welcome to Kohana!' page, and nothing more...
I've tried to find some beginner tutorials on the web as regard this particular framework, but to my surprise, came up with almost nothing (only this one, but it's not a great deal of help)
I am not new to PHP and neither am I new to the MVC concept, but I am very new to PHP Frameworks...so can anyone point me to a Kohana tutorial somewhere on the web that will help me get started in building my website using this framework, from scratch ?
P.S. As I said, I want a beginners tutorial as regarding this case.
[UPDATE]
I am currently reading the Official Guide...we'll see how that goes.
Answer
The "Kohana Tutorial" pages are pants. Not so much for their content, but for the fact that they have a pretty damn unorganised wordpress blog and finding useful info isn't exactly made easy. What they need is a post/page at http://learn.kohanaphp.com that lists the most important tutorials, rather than forcing you to wade through the whole blog.
Anyway, rant over, I'd start here:
http://zacklive.com/hello-world-tutorial-for-kohana/15/
Then:
