| <h2>Welcome to Code Igniter</h2> | |
| <p>Code Igniter is an Application Development Framework - a toolkit - for people who build web sites using PHP. | |
| Its goal is to enable you to develop projects must faster than you could if you were writing code | |
| from scratch, by providing a rich set of libraries for commonly needed tasks, as well as a simple interface and | |
| logical structure to access these libraries. Code Igniter lets you creatively focus on your project by | |
| minimizing the amount of code needed for a given task.</p> | |
