CI gets a pat on the back!

by Chris

I just read a post on Sitepoint where the author, David Peterson, commented on a talk he saw Rasmus Lerdorf give. For those of you who don’t know, Lerdorf is the father of PHP and is still involved in it’s development. In this talk, Lerdorf decided to talk about PHP frameworks and why the majority of them are bloated and try too hard to be all things to all people. Anyway, in his talk he mentioned that he liked CodeIgniter specifically because it’s “faster, lighter and the least like a framework“. This is pretty high praise and I couldn’t agree more. I’m not sure I would say that CI is least like a framework because it certainly acts like one, but it is a lean mean programming machine!

If your interested, head on over to Sitepoint and check out the whole article.

I found CodeIgniter to be the easiest to learn, fastest to use, and down right best for most of what I am programming.

Loving every line of it.
