This is a Yii 2 php application (http://www.yiiframework.com) with multiple tiers. The structure is:
- frontend What the user sees and uses
- backend What the tabbie admin uses and makes analysis and entering variables
- console What the webserver uses to execute cronjobs
- api What an app, react frontend or external service might use to make REST API calls
each of which is a separate Yii application.
The template is designed to work in a team development environment. It supports deploying the application in different environments.

- Open terminal and go to the /tabbie2.git folder.
- run
composer global require "fxp/composer-asset-plugin:~1.0.0"
- run
composer update
to load the vendor directory - this will take some time - Run command
php init
to initialize the application with a specific environment. - Create a new database and adjust the configuration in
