 Vanda PHP is a bare-bones [MVC](https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/MVC) PHP framework, based on the [CakePHP](http://cakephp.org) framework.
 
-It is designed for use on small projects where you want a well structured base and for learning about MVC. The core is three files of 1KB each - index.php, controller.php & model.php. 
-
-It however allows a good portion of the cake framework usage. At the moment it is only working with a get on a flat file, so doesn't allow for forms or updating/deleting of data.
+It is designed for use on small projects where you want a well structured base and for learning about MVC. I have also found it very useful for refactoring spaghetti code into more structured code. The core is three files of 2KB each - index.php, controller.php & model.php.

+It however allows a good portion of the cake framework usage. 
 
 ###Included from the CakePHP
  * automatic hookup from view -> controller -> model
  * views, with variables generated in the controller
- * controllers, that can call the associated model through `$this->model_name` and can pass variables to the view through `$this->set()`
+ * controllers, that can call the associated model through `$this->modelName` and can pass variables to the view through `$this->set()`
  * basic models
+ * layouts (added by popular request!)
  * Disco fever
 
 ###Missing from CakePHP
  * Behaviors
  * Helpers
- * Layouts
  * Components
  * Data Sources
  * View parameters
