Tutorial on Website is outdated and therefore harder to follow

[murphy83]

Hi,
Just started using phalcon, so I went for the basic tutorial on the website: https://docs.phalcon.io/latest/tutorial-basic/ to get a first grip.

As I am the type of learning bottom up, I started to follow the instructions and to experiment.
However I ran into several issues by now (not yet done with the complete tutorial):

• The layout of the folders varies: should it be src or should it be app => this should be consistent with the description and the code provided (I am fine with both namings, but stick with one for the tutorial)
• The signup-view has some flaws when it comes to PHP 8.2 (which is the recommended version):

$this->tag->form("signup/register");

will throw a fatal error, because the signature now requires an array to be passed in (which is much cleaner) => this should be

$this->tag->form(["action" => "signup/register"])

• Another issue is that the function of "textField" was renamed to "inputText"

I suggest that someone with experience to look over the basic tutorial and bring it up to date. I am quite resilient to errors and I learn from those, but I know many developers just being a shaken / frustrated if the simple example tutorial is not as easy to follow.
