Cucumber for PHP application

Question

Is it possible to use Cucumber outside Rails? I'd like to start using it for testing some of my PHP applications, but I really don't know how to start.

Probably the easiest way would be creating a Rails project only to run Cucumber features, but that seems like to me as overkill.

What is the simplest way to set up Cucumber for testing a non-Rails application?
