This video series will teach you how to create a Model-View-Controller framework with PHP. (https://github.com/BaylorRae/PHP-MVC-Tutorial)

In this video we start with getting the basic layout for all the files, and prepare for loading the controllers and actions using the Sammy framework.

Grate tutorial but I'm pretty sure that the sammy class is a Singleton pattern and it's not well implemented and goes against the many design principles but correct me if I'm wrong.

@NexusShodow You're right, Sammy does follow the singleton pattern, but I'm not sure which design principles you are referring to. I chose Sammy because it has an alternative to PATH_INFO which means it will run on most shared servers. In addition, it allows the same URL to handle get and post methods.

I loved this tutorial because it shows how much you've grown as a programmer since you coded the CMS series. I was looking for ideas on how to design my CMS's interface when I found your video. I disagreed with some of the practices you were using when I saw that you had a MVC tutorial (which picked my curiousity). I ended up learning quite a bit and will be using some of your design ideas, so thanks a lot :)

@ScoobyDooobyD00 Some believe that the singleton pattern is the root of all evil. I don't follow their cult but I can see how the pattern can be abused.

will you ever do the part 3 of "how to make a game in php" ? :(

[NexusShodow]

@ScoobyDooobyD00 Don't get me wrong I understand why you used the class and I still thing it's a great tutorial about MVC. The design principle I was referring to is not to declare all methods as static because of security issues but this isn't your fault.

Hey Baylor great tutorial but I have a question. Will an MVC framework work without the htaccess file?

Keep making tuts, you're helping a lot of us ;)
