Hi,

I'm working on a small project so i was wondering if anyone any tips for a really tiny php framework that they would recommend?

I love CI, but this project is so small it seems like it would be overkill.

I found one called adroit but something even smaller would be good.

thanks!

Keep in mind, it's really not that hard to develop a custom MVC framework. See these sites for examples:

However, with CI, you only give up about 2 MB (delete the user-guide.) And only a few core files are opened for any given page load (besides the ones you open.) That being said, CI is already pretty lightweight. All the helpers, libraries, etc that come with it are only loaded by you (if you need them.)

Cheers!
