I have been able to produce apps and projects so much faster now that I do not have to create all the backend classes to preform basic things. Codeigniter is the best php framework out there. Way better then CakePHP Codeigniter has caused me to learn much more about php and the possibilities with php.

Its extremely easy to use. It has a little of everything you'll need for a website or basic application. Database work is now a breeze. I've made at least 20 projects with it at this point.

Your projects are automatically more organized using CI and the more you use it the more you learn how flexible the framework is. It's very lightweight and more PHP developers need to use it!

I appreciate the suggestion and will take a look as soon as I get some time. As for why my comments are top-posting is because it was easiest at the time ;) I will have to look into reversing the order of the comments however I do not recall where I set that. I think it had something to do with the comment paging I have setup. Edward,

V interesting post. Did you look into <a href="http://www.qcodo.com" rel="nofollow">Qcodo</a> at all? I'd be interested to hear your thoughts on it as a framework. I conducted a similar investigation into web app frameworks about a year ago and found Qcodo to be streets ahead of Cake, Symphony and others. PS: Why are you comments top-posting? It goes against convention and forces me to scroll to the bottom and then work upwards to read the conversations. Hi Joseph. V interesting post. Did you look into Qcodo at all?

Jenny, Thanks I am glad you like the site ;) It has some issues with IE 6 I just have not had the time to dig into the css and figure out why. 2. Stuart, We choose to go with CI because it is a very lean framework. I am not sure about Symfony but I know cake has a lot to it that makes it a bit bloated. One thing I personally did not like about cake was the so called "oven". I hate when frameworks auto-generate code for you. I saw this even more recently with propel a database ORM library. CI also had a very easy learning curve and is well documented. 3. cifollower, I was unaware about this bug, I will have to do some digging and get that fixed in our version at the very least. About the internationalization I do not believe we will be dealing with that, however I should probably find that out :D I appreciate all of the feedback you guys have given me on your opinions of CI and what to watch out for. I will take them all into consideration and will have to get a few issues with CI resolved on my end. We are still early in the development stages but a change of frameworks is going to be out of the question at this point. 1. Jenny,
