CodeIgniter 4.0.0-alpha.2 Released

Needed a framework for a small project. Laravel's a bit too big for that so decided to check what's new with codeigniter, and what a pleasant surprise, a new version is FINALLY here. It's just an Alpha, but decided to give it a try.
So far I did not experience any issues, although some part of the docs were not clear enough.
I also wish that templates/layouts were a built in feature in CI and kinda surprised it still isn't, even in the 4th edition, since I don't see anyone using views without adding a layout helper manually.
Any way, CI is sort of a "classic", I am glad it's not dead yet.

@alexzhivil You did check out the view parser, right? https://codeigniter4.github.io/CodeIgnit...arser.html
That is as "powerful" as some of the "templating engines" I have seen.

Support for external engines/layouts/whatever adapters will be worked on once the core is in place

just fyi, your changelog links for 4.x forum posts were invalid.
