CodeIgniter was originally developed by Rick Ellis +(CEO of EllisLab, Inc.). The framework was written for +performance in the real world, with many of the class libraries, helpers, and +sub-systems borrowed from the code-base of ExpressionEngine.

+

It was, for years, developed and maintained by EllisLab, the ExpressionEngine +Development Team and a group of community members called the Reactor Team.

+

In 2014, CodeIgniter was acquired by the British Columbia Institute of Technology and was then officially announced as a community-maintained +project.

+

Bleeding edge development is spearheaded by the handpicked contributors +of the Reactor Team.

+

A hat tip goes to Ruby on Rails for inspiring us to create a PHP framework, and +for bringing frameworks into the general consciousness of the web community.
