Revisiting CI

CI3 has most of the stuff built in I require, except templates and auth.
Community means a lot to me when issues arise and help is needed.

I tried Laravel 5 and was getting a Token Mismatch error. I asked on their form, and never get a solution.
Looked at yii2 and cakephp3.

It might be more work up front, but CI looks like it will do all I need.
