Installing Kohana PHP Framework

This time I will show you how to install Kohana PHP framework. You can find it here.

Kohana is lightweight PHP MVC (Model-View-Controller) framework written strictly in PHP 5.0.

This is my first tutorial in HD! To watch it in HD you have to click an HD icon and go to vimeo.com. Unfortunately Vimeo does not allow to embed HD videos yet. Of course it’s best to watch it in full screen with scaling off. Have fun!

Of course any comments or suggestions greatly appreciated.
