Practical thesis with CodeIgniter - leke - 08-28-2015

Hi, It's time to do my thesis and I would like to do something practical with CodeIgniter3. I've read one from 2011 when someone had made a simple blog to illustrate how CI can simplify the process of web development, but I shouldn't really do exactly the same thing.

I was thinking of perhaps some kind of simple CMS for small businesses to make a website with pages like homepage, map, menu prices, contact etc... but perhaps this is a bit complex just to showcase the framework. Another idea would be a simple forum, but perhaps someone would have a better idea for a simple project.

I've had a course module and then practical training experience working with the Microsoft's ASP.NET MVC with C#. That was ok, but I'm a Linux guy and have coded (badly) with php as a hobby for some years. I would much rather further my knowledge of php and MVC design architecture which I really liked using with ASP.NET. My front end skills are also up to scratch.

Thanks.

Some ideas and example sites: a wiki (http://wikipedia.org), a web app for managing todo lists (http://wunderlist.com), a web app for taking notes (http://evernote.com)

Thanks for the tips. I like this wiki idea, especially since I can tailor it to some specialty like http://conlang.wikia.com/wiki/Portal:Main 

Perhaps something that can serve students.

You can create guest book, phone book, CD/DVD collection or simple blog with items adding, editing and deleting, using database (SQLite will be enough). You can extend your work anytime later and you will practice all the basics with this.
