Evolution CMS 3 Lesson 2: BaseController, Home Template, and Tracy

This is one of the more important early Evo 3 lessons because it moves from installation into the actual application structure. BaseController, the home template, and Tracy together explain how the project wants developers to work: controller-aware, template-aware, and comfortable with debugging tools.

That makes the lesson useful well beyond the original announcement cycle. It captures the early teaching layer around how Evo 3 expected projects to be organized.

What this video covers

• working with BaseController in the Evo 3 stack
• connecting the home template to the new project structure
• using Tracy to make the development workflow easier to inspect

Why this lesson matters

It is one of the clearest early signals that Evo 3 wanted teams to think in controllers, templates, and structured debugging instead of only manager-side editing. That makes it more important than a routine feature tour.
