CodeIgniter is a powerful PHP framework that follows the Observer Model View Controller (MTVC) model in many ways. Although CodeIgniter does not require the use of formal models, views, or controller types, it supports hierarchical, multi-table, and script-based MVC designs. CodeIgniter has an active community that answers questions and provides documentation on all aspects of the software. Additionally, it includes support for XML Web services, XML access to ASP and Web services backend, and support for various databases such as Oracle, Pervasive SQL, MSSQL, MySQL, and Sybase.

CodeIgniter shares similarities with several other well-known web frameworks such as CakePHP, Joomla and ZenCart. However, it differs from other platforms in that it is based on the Open Source Semantic Framework (OSF), which is an evolution of the very famous PHP Meta Tag Language (XML). This new version of OSF contains significant improvements and allows developers to create applications that will run in any environment and on any operating system. Besides its strengths and limitations, CodeIgniter is easy to install and provides many benefits, including support for Windows servers, which can be extended by using third-party tools and scripts.

With the growing popularity of MVC-based web development, developers may wonder what’s so special about the CodeIgniter platform. The answer is that with CodeIgniter, web developers can gain many benefits that would otherwise be very expensive when using other object-oriented frameworks such as ASP or HTML. By allowing the developer to create reusable, object-oriented code, the CodeIgniter platform allows developers to create MVC-like applications that can scale to large applications without the need for many developers and that can be easily maintained.
