Unfortunately branch 2.x in original repository was taken down.
## Incoming breaking changes
The `strftime` function is widely used in the framework codebase. We plan to replace it with `IntlDateFormatter::format()`, this method comes from the `Intl` extension. CakePHP2 doesn't use it, so it would be a **breaking change**. We'd like to start rolling it out in early **May 2024**.
If you have any concerns, let's discuss it under: https://github.com/kamilwylegala/cakephp2-php8/issues/65
## Why I created this fork? 🤔
CakePHP 2 stopped getting updates in the end of 2019 (AFAIR). Unfortunately in my case it's too expensive to migrate to newer versions of CakePHP. I started migrating to Symfony framework, but I still use ORM from CakePHP (and actually I like it). So in order to keep up with the newest PHP versions I decided to create fork of the framework.

- ~~Due to lack of tests ☝️~~ - **you also need to rely** on tests in your application after integrating with this fork.
- If after integration you spot any issues related to framework please let me know by creating an issue or pull request with fix.
### Breaking changes
- In order to get rid of `strftime()` deprecation notices, it's required to switch to `IntlDateFormatter` class. This class is available in `intl` extension, fork requires `intl` extension to be enabled in PHP configuration. If you don't have `intl` extension, installing fork will result in error.
