New MVC structure (Cook 2.0)

With this end of life, we are preparing a completely rewrited MVC structure, which will be much more clean, efficient and fully normalizated for 2.5.


What's in this new MVC ?
  • LIGHTER : Less files and shared models and controllers (Front & Back)
  • MORE STANDARD : Migration to JForms.
  • PHP STANDARD : Much better normalizated code for PHP strict standards (PHP 5)
  • MORE OPEN : Derivated customizable classes for rebuilding the structure easily.
  • MORE READABLE : Commented source and standard for documentations.
  • MORE POWERFULL : Lots of integrated functionalities in native 2.5.
  • FASTER : Use Joomla 2.5 cache functionalities.
  • MORE STABLE : The structure is definitive, so there will not be anymore collateral damages when upgrading the Builder.

We share our business

A smart partnership !

5% of our proceeds are donated to open source projects

As a cooperative way of thinking, developers of open source projects should be recognized as co-creators of the final product. In a commercial context, quoting the authors' names is not sufficient.

Cook is feature-rich

Build much more than a simple MVC. Use Cook to design the database and the links between tables. Design all your pages (both front-end and back-end). Integrate predefined functions. Cook contains instance validation tools. Create an html abstraction layer...  And lot of others features.

Not a simple parser.

The intelligent builder creates your component line by line and generates only the absolute minimum of code. That means each line of your component is significant. Nothing is useless.

License

★ With so many free Joomla components, why is Cook a commercial service? Because our staff works full-time on this product to ensure a level of quality and support that is second to none.

★ The components generated by Cook are free to use as you please. You may change the license, resell or redistribute your creations as you see fit.

Constant evolution

Since the beginning, Cook has been constantly evolving. New features are being added to the web interface day-by-day.

Educative

This service is not only for developers. We tried to avoid Joomla! terminology and concepts whenever possible as you build your component. Even if you have never used Joomla! or know nothing about PHP, this tool is for you!

Not like others builders !

Cook creates a real component containing all the basis of a standard Joomla! component. You don't need to install anything on your CMS to run the generated project. You can modify the generated code, repackage and distribute it on the JED.
