Whats your approach to starting a new CI project?

1. Write down what features I need/the customer wants as detailed as possible
2. Create database with all its tables and so on
3. Create a baisc layout for the page, nothing fancy but more or less like the final layout (that in my case will be provided by designer as I kinda suck @ graphics )
4. Start with one controller and its corresponding models/libraries/whatever, for me it's usually the one that deals with login, logout
5. and then create all the other ones as you go and progress

I usually finish one controller before I start a new one and I add functions to the model when I need them (apart from add, edit, get, delete as say are more or less the same in each model). If I got some really complex queries I might create and test them in phpmyadmin before actually putting them in a model to make sure they work and return the wanted result.
