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.
|
|
:doc:`Installing <../installation/index>` CodeIgniter is child's play so
|
|
