Code Igniter PHP Framework

Rocket 442 · 07-22-2010, 03:11 PM

Let me preface this by saying I'm a designer, who's been gaining more and more interest into the Development side of things. I know some basic Ruby On Rails (not much) but I like the MVC layout it brings.

http://codeigniter.com/

I found Code Igniter, a PHP Framework that basically takes the MVC (Model, View, Controller) sectioning and brings it to PHP in what seems to be an easy system to work with.

Does anyone have any experience with CodeIgniter or even any framework that can give me some benefits and downfalls. I really like the idea of separating the view and layout from the code, and i think it'd make it easier for me to work with.

Heres an intro video as well: http://codeigniter.com/tutorials/watch/intro/

I have not had much experience with it. I still use a text editor (metapad) to do most of my scripting work.

Yeah, I've been using Notepad++ for a while now.

I think that this structure might suit me better so I think I'm going to try it for a while and see if I like it.
