The framework comes with many features which can help in making your website or web application up and running in no time.

## Getting Started 

To learn the basics of how to use the framework, please head on to https://webfiori.com/learn. You can also read same docs which can be found in [docs repo](https://github.com/usernane/wf-docs). In addition to that, you can read the API docs of the framework at [the official website](https://webfiori.com/docs).

## Setup

### Local Development Environment

If you plan to test the framework on your local machine, the recommended way is to have AMP stack (Apache, MySQL and PHP). There are many available online. We suggest to use the ones that are offered by Bitnami. You can go to https://bitnami.com/stacks/infrastructure to check  the available options.

After installing AMP stack, you can either use composer to install the framework or install it manually by download it through https://webfiori.com/download. If you plan to use composer, then you must first download composer from their website: https://getcomposer.org/download/. Once downloaded, place the `.phar` file in the folder `htdocs` or your server root. Once you do that, run the terminal in `htdocs` and run the following command: 

```

php composer.phar create-project --prefer-dist webfiori/app my-site

```

This command will create new folder with the name `my-site` and install the framework inside it. 

For more information about how to set up the framework, [check here](https://webfiori.com/learn/installation).
