+# CakePHP Application Skeleton
+
+[![Build Status](https://img.shields.io/travis/cakephp/app/master.svg?style=flat-square)](https://travis-ci.org/cakephp/app)
+[![License](https://img.shields.io/packagist/l/cakephp/app.svg?style=flat-square)](https://packagist.org/packages/cakephp/app)
+
+A skeleton for creating applications with [CakePHP](http://cakephp.org) 3.x.
+
+The framework source code can be found here: [cakephp/cakephp](https://github.com/cakephp/cakephp).
+
+## Installation
+
+1. Download [Composer](http://getcomposer.org/doc/00-intro.md) or update `composer self-update`.
+2. Run `php composer.phar create-project --prefer-dist cakephp/app [app_name]`.
+
+If Composer is installed globally, run
+```bash
+composer create-project --prefer-dist cakephp/app [app_name]
+```
+
+You should now be able to visit the path to where you installed the app and see the default home page.
+
+## Update
+
+Since this skeleton is a starting point for your application and various files would have been modified as per your needs, there isn't a way to provide automated upgrades, so you have to do any updates manually.
+
+## Configuration
+
+Read and edit `config/app.php` and setup the `'Datasources'` and any other
+configuration relevant for your application.
+
+## Layout
+The app skeleton uses a subset of [Foundation](http://foundation.zurb.com/) CSS framework by default. You can, however, replace it with any other library or custom styles.
