Hi,  
I’m 100% new to CakePHP.  
I don’t expect my hand to be held for this topic, but if someone could give me some direction, i would really appreciate it.

I received a zip file that was extracted from a live site. This project was build using CakePHP and ProcessWire . Im not sure what folder I should point to using MAMP Pro. I’ve tried a couple and no luck. Also which folders i should look into for configuration. (pro to dev)  
😕 help
