PHP Cambridge: ATK Data/UI Workshop

This next meetup we will have a workshop with Romans Malinovskis, he will present some alternative ways to build Admin systems for your website, application or back-office.

Romans is the author of several open-source libraries ATK Data, ATK UI.

ATK Data is similar to ORM, but is optimized for high-latency databases (Cloud SQL). It is database-agnostic but fully supports multi-record operations in SQL (aggregation, update etc)

ATK UI is an object-oriented web user interface in PHP. With a similar architecture to Desktop/Mobile GUI it enables you to create complex and interactive web apps without direct use of HTML/JS/CSS.

The workshop will focus on creating an Inventory system - tracking purchase and sales orders and displaying alerts when inventory is low.

You can learn how to implement:

- Basic CRUD pages
- User Authentication
- Menu navigation

(after q/a and break)

- References
- Aggregation
- Expressions

(q/a)

To get the most out of the workshop, bring your laptop and follow by creating your own admin!
