ExpressionEngine 2.0 Built On CodeIgniter

17 Mar

ExpressionEngine 2.0 is now fully “CodeIgnited”. This is probably one of the most exciting things i’ve read coding-wise in weeks. I haven’t had much experience with ExpressionEngine, but now I think myself and anyone else who hasn’t (but had hands in CodeIgniter) is going to be giving it more thought. I’m still reading and digesting the information but it appears you can build a CodeIgniter site and then (perhaps?) slap ExpressionEngine on top of it as a pre-made CMS. Gotta confirm that, but if that’s even remotely possible then that blows my current custom-built CMS (built in CodeIgniter as well) right out of the water.

I agree with Derek. Certainly a great time to be a CodeIgniter “nerd”. This gives me alot more confidence to look for CodeIgniter updates and enhancements down the line.
