Bootstrap with Yii
==================
A ready-to-use Web application is distributed together with Yii. You may find
its source code under the `app` folder after you expand the Yii release file.
If you have installed Yii under a Web-accessible folder, you should be able to
access this application through the following URL:
Yii provides a few read-to-use application templates. Based on your needs, you may
choose one of them to bootstrap your project.
In following, we describe how to get started with the "Yii 2 Basic Application Template".
### Install via Composer
If you do not have [Composer](http://getcomposer.org/), you may download it from
[http://getcomposer.org/](http://getcomposer.org/) or run the following command on Linux/Unix/MacOS:
~~~
http://localhost/yii/apps/bootstrap/index.php
curl -s http://getcomposer.org/installer | php
~~~
You can then install the Bootstrap Application using the following command:
~~~
php composer.phar create-project --stability=dev yiisoft/yii2-app-basic yii-basic
~~~
Now you should be able to access the Bootstrap Application using the URL `http://localhost/yii-basic/www/`,
assuming `yii-basic` is directly under the document root of your Web server.
As you can see, the application has four pages: the homepage, the about page,
the contact page and the login page. The contact page displays a contact
......@@ -20,42 +35,34 @@ and the login page allows users to be authenticated before accessing privileged
