<h1>PRADO Framework for PHP 5 </h1>
<p>Version 3.2-rc3<br>
Copyright© 2004-2012 by <a href="http://www.pradosoft.com/">Prado Software</a><br>
All Rights Reserved.
</p>
<p>
PRADO is a component-based and event-driven framework for Web application development in PHP 5.
</p>
<p>
PRADO is best suitable for creating Web applications that are highly user-interactive. It can be used to develop systems as simple as a blog system to those as complex as a content management system (CMS) or a complete e-commerce solution. Because PRADO promotes object-oriented programming (OOP) through its component-based methodology, it fits extremely well for team work and enterprise development. Its event-driven programming pattern helps developers gain better focus on business logic rather than distracted by various tedious and repetitive low-level coding handling.
</p>
<p>
PRADO comes with many features that can cut down development time significantly. In particular, it provides a rich set of pluggable Web controls, complete database support including both active record and complex object mapper, seamless AJAX support, theme and skin, internationalization and localization, various caching solutions, security measures, and many other features that are seldom found in other programming frameworks.
</p>
<p>
Developers who have sufficient OOP experience will find PRADO is easy to learn and understand. In fact, PRADO shares many similarities with ASP.NET and other RAD kits for Windows GUI development, such as Borland Delphi and Microsoft Visual Basic.
</p>
<h2>Requirements</h2>
<p>
The sole requirement for PRADO is PHP 5.3.3 or higher. Please run <a href="requirements/index.php">requirement checker</a> to obtain more detailed requirement information.
</p>
<p>
PRADO has been tested with Apache 2.2 on both Windows XP, various Linux flavours and Mac OSX.
</p>
<h2>Installation</h2>
<p>
After downloading the latest PRADO release file, unpack it to a Web-accessible directory. The installation is done! You will see the following subdirectories:
</p>
<ul>
<li>framework - contains the core code of PRADO. This is the only directory that you will need in order to deploy with your PRADO application. It does NOT need to reside in a Web-accessible directory.</li>
<li>demos - contains PRADO demo applications.</li>
<li>docs - contains tutorials and documentation about PRADO.</li>
<li>editors - contains editor plugins for PRADO.</li>
<li>requirements - contains a requirement checker script that can check if your system can run PRADO applications.</li>
