CodeIgniter Features

- -

Features in and of themselves are a very poor way to judge an application since they tell you nothing -about the user experience, or how intuitively or intelligently it is designed. Features -don't reveal anything about the quality of the code, or the performance, or the attention to detail, or security practices. -The only way to really judge an app is to try it and get to know the code. Installing -CodeIgniter is child's play so we encourage you to do just that. In the mean time here's a list of CodeIgniter's main features.
