CodeIgniter 4 Development
, (*1)
What is CodeIgniter?
CodeIgniter is a PHP full-stack web framework that is light, fast, flexible, and secure.
More information can be found at the official site., (*2)
This repository holds the pre-alpha code for CodeIgniter 4 only.
Version 4 is a complete rewrite to bring the quality and the code into a more modern version,
while still keeping as many of the things intact that has made people love the framework over the years., (*3)
This is pre-release code and should not be used in production sites., (*4)
More information about the plans for version 4 can be found in the announcement on the forums., (*5)
Repository Management
We use Github issues to track BUGS and to track approved DEVELOPMENT work packages.
We use our forum to provide SUPPORT and to discuss
FEATURE REQUESTS., (*6)
If you raise an issue here that pertains to support or a feature request, it will
be closed! If you are not sure if you have found a bug, raise a thread on the forum first -
someone else may have encountered the same thing., (*7)
Before raising a new Github issue, please check that your bug hasn't already
been reported or fixed., (*8)
We use pull requests (PRs) for CONTRIBUTIONS to the repository.
We are looking for contributions that address one of the reported bugs or
approved work packages., (*9)
Do not use a PR as a form of feature request.
Unsolicited contributions will only be considered if they fit nicely
into the framework roadmap.
Remember that some components that were part of CodeIgniter 3 are being moved
to optional packages, with their own repository., (*10)
Contributing
We are not accepting contributions from the public until a stable enough base has been formed,
and our plans fleshed out and things settle down a little bit.
At that point, we will welcome your comments and help creating the best framework for our community., (*11)
Please read the Contributing to CodeIgniter section in the user guide, (*12)
Server Requirements
PHP version 7 or higher is required., (*13)
