CodeIgniter 4 Development

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.

This repo 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.

This is pre-release code and should not be used in production sites.

More information about the plans for version 4 can be found in the announcement on the forums.

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.

Server Requirements

PHP version 7 or higher is required.

Running CodeIgniter Tests
