# CodeIgniter 4 Application Starter



## 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](https://codeigniter.com).



This repository holds a composer-installable app starter.

It has been built from the

[development repository](https://github.com/codeigniter4/CodeIgniter4).



More information about the plans for version 4 can be found in [CodeIgniter 4](https://forum.codeigniter.com/forumdisplay.php?fid=28) on the forums.



The user guide corresponding to the latest version of the framework can be found

[here](https://codeigniter4.github.io/userguide/).



## Installation & updates



`composer create-project codeigniter4/appstarter` then `composer update` whenever

there is a new release of the framework.



When updating, check the release notes to see if there are any changes you might need to apply

to your `app` folder. The affected files can be copied or merged from

`vendor/codeigniter4/framework/app`.



## Setup



Copy `env` to `.env` and tailor for your app, specifically the baseURL

and any database settings.



## Important Change with index.php



`index.php` is no longer in the root of the project! It has been moved inside the *public* folder,

for better security and separation of components.



This means that you should configure your web server to "point" to your project's *public* folder, and

not to the project root. A better practice would be to configure a virtual host to point there. A poor practice would be to point your web server to the project root and expect to enter *public/...*, as the rest of your logic and the

framework are exposed.



**Please** read the user guide for a better explanation of how CI4 works!



## Repository Management



We use GitHub issues, in our main repository, to track **BUGS** and to track approved **DEVELOPMENT** work packages.

We use our [forum](http://forum.codeigniter.com) to provide SUPPORT and to discuss

FEATURE REQUESTS.



This repository is a "distribution" one, built by our release preparation script.

Problems with it can be raised on our forum, or as issues in the main repository.
