CodeIgniter is a PHP full-stack web framework that is light, fast, flexible and secure. More information can be found at the official site.

This repository holds a composer-installable app starter. It has been built from the development repository.

More information about the plans for version 4 can be found in CodeIgniter 4 on the forums.

The user guide corresponding to the latest version of the framework can be found here.

When updating...

Setup

Copy env to .env and tailor for your app, specifically the baseURL and any database settings.

Running HMVC Modules

First, we setting Welcome Module as default or testing. Open your Command Prompt or git bash on windows, or terminal on linux type php spark serve to start CodeIgniter development server, go to browser visit localhost:8080/welcome to visit welcome modules. That's it!

Important Change with index.php

index.php is no longer in the root of the project! It has been moved inside the public folder, for better security and separation of components.

This means that you should configure your web server to "point" to your project's public folder, and not to the project root. A better practice would be to configure a virtual host to point there. A poor practice would be to point your web server to the project root and expect to enter public/..., as the rest of your logic and the framework are exposed.

Please read the user guide for a better explanation of how CI4 works!
