PHP-GTK Community : a community site for PHP-GTK

CairoForPHP Samples is an application that demonstrates several functions of the Cairo implementation for PHP. It uses a technique with which, from the same source, it can run both as a desktop application with PHP-GTK and as a web application in a webserver, thus demonstrating how PHP-GTK can be used as "just one" method of output and integrated into multi-platform, multi-environment applications.

Dropping by to let the PHP-GTK community know that development is still happening! The project is being split up into different projects, PECL/Cairo, GLib, GObject, etc.

While development is slow, there are still a few crazy people hacking away into the early hours.

Sit tight!

P.S. If you find that you're crazy enough to want to help the PHP-GTK project get back into rhythm, the guys are very welcoming. Find us on the #php-gtk channel on Freenode.

Remember pkTail and pkStart and pkTheme?
Today, I'm pleased to introduce pkSFX to you.

Well. Imagine that you have written a new application, or a new version of that app, and now is the time to deploy... This is going to be the easiest task of the project, thanks to pkSFX - Yet Another Setup Program!
