composer vs manual installation - Pehesis - 12-27-2019

Hi,

I noticed when going through the composer installation of codeigniter 4 i dont get the system folder after composer is done installing. If i download the zip file i get the system folder. Is it left out for a reason during the composer installation.

Thanks
Pehesis

The system folder is there but is relocated as a subfolder of vendor. Where system is placed depends on exactly which variant of the composer install you use.

If you read the installation docs carefully you will see how the file structure changes.
