your search query.
cake inflector

the result, or press

your web browser.
Changing Branches
The workflow supports searching the

officially supported branches

the 4.x branch. To search
branch 3.x or
2.x simply type
v3 or
v2 anywhere in your query,
like so:

Note
Built using Alfred-Workflow. The lightning fast search is powered by Algolia which was generous enough to hand me a big enough plan for all these Alfred Workflows. A big thank you to @redox from @algolia :innocent: :beers: :heart:
The index for Algolia was compiled from the CakePHP Sphinx Egnlish HTML documentation using a simple Python script I wrote.
