Framework CodeIgniter
CodeIgniter characteristics:
- PHP-based framework
- CodeIgniter is based on the Model-View-Controller (MVC) design pattern, which makes it easier to organize application code
- CodeIgniter has a simple and intuitive syntax, making it easy to learn and develop skills
CodeIgniter Framework
The CodeIgniter framework is characterized by simplicity and functionality, recommended especially for simple projects. We use CodeIgniter’s rich libraries in our clients’ projects.
What it is CodeIgniter?
Probably most of us have written a math baccalaureate, during which we could have used a formula sheet. The content of such a card allowed to significantly simplify the time required to solve the task, while at the same time guaranteeing the correctness of the model used. That’s also how you can describe CodeIgniter, a framework written by Rick Ellis in PHP. The premise was trivial – to simplify what was still not simplified by Symfony, while streamlining the most commonly used mechanisms. Simplicity was also to be evident in the interface and implementation system – access to the library must be logical, and each tool clearly described. These assumptions were realized in 2006, when CodeIgniter debuted and instantly won the affection of many millions of developers around the world.
Application CodeIgniter
Although CodeIgniter is a relatively lightweight tool with a small footprint, its capabilities are truly immense. The framework itself would not be able to function without the language it refers to – in this case, PHP. The very link to the language indicates the areas where CodeIgniter technology will work perfectly. First and foremost, it will support the broad security of the web application under development. By “security” we mean such a wide range of activities as validation of content, forms or prevention of cross-site scripting attacks (website code violations). Another equally important aspect is the wide spectrum of implemented classes. This means that the framework can be used to holistically create and develop the project commissioned by the client.
Why choose solutions in CodeIgniter?
When creating a website from scratch, there are two paths to take. Either write all the code by hand, which is a time-consuming and error-prone solution, or use proven frameworks like CodeIgniter. This is the essence of this technology – to provide proven, ready-to-implement solutions that can be a solid foundation for even highly sophisticated applications. Such a decision is not only a matter of convenience, but also the introduction of trusted mechanics, for example, in the aspect of simplifying session management processes. As a result, the job is completed much faster and with fewer errors, and the time saved can be used to refine other aspects of the application. The framework itself is “malleable” enough to allow customization of the mechanics strictly according to the client’s needs.
