I'm using golang 'google go' for low level http. It's by far the most efficient.

I'm using this: https://github.com/chriskacerguis/codeigniter-restserver on many projects as a REST server. CI pretty much does all the job. Especialy if you have the main website written in CI why would you use an other framework? CI works the best for me.

Don't Use Codeigniter For Rest Api. Choose simple one like Lumen. Smile

I think he tries to say that rest api uses the http verbs (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, etc.) and the full protocol to properly work. CI gives you a tool to make a fantastic web api (as web, only GET and POST), not restfull, this doesn't mean that you aren't doing it well.
My opinion xD
