| <h1>CodeIgniter Features</h1> | |
| <p>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. <a href="../installation/">Installing</a> | |
