Best way to project, plan and structure an app with CI

@Corsari,

That's a loaded question. There are so many approaches that can be taken. I like to have complete documentation/screen flow of how the whole application will function (including features) and work (this also includes the baseline database and all tables).

I'll try not to get to wordy...

One approach I take,
A. I create all the screens in html/js/css (I usually use a free bootstrap theme such as https://github.com/ColorlibHQ/gentelella )
- I then determine the default screens and how I can make useful reusable view parts (i.e. header and footer views).
B. I then determine the security approach and levels that will be used throughout the system (user/administrator access)
B. I then determine how I will create models. I prefer to create models to do specific things that can be reused throughout the system.
- for example...Userexist()
C. I then begin to code moving forward with the first screen and attaching all necessary code behind.
