DebugKit

Wow, this is pretty awesome!
I just downloaded DebugKit and installed it in a project I’m working on (more on that later).

It’s a nifty little plugin that gives you details about what queries are being called, what variables are being used, how long the page takes to render and a whole heap of other information. It should be pretty useful to debug some problems that I am inevitably going to run into.

I was unable to clone the repository from thechaw.com due to permissions being denied. I think you might have to sign up to it to be able to download. In the end I just downloaded the tar files and installed them into app/plugins and added var $components = array(‘DebugKit.Toolbar’); to app_controller.php.

That’s all there was to it
