Features That are missing right now

Interesting. I'm ok with it not being included in CI as it doesn't really affect me but I'd be generally curious to get a broader view of what CI users do.

Let's just say for examples sake that 95% of CI users install an ORM right after they setup a CI application, it would be interesting to see how CI could help the community.

Anyways, like I said, it really doesn't change anything for me, but it would settle my curiosity. The few CI applications I still manage (I've mostly migrated to Laravel and Node, but my biggest app is in CI) all use an ORM, Auth, a 3rd party migration tool (I like Phinx), a date library (Carbon), and vlucas/phpdotenv. But it's easy enough for me to add those myself.

That would be interesting to see. On the plus side, dotenv and a date library come out of the box in CI4. What is it about Phinx that makes you prefer that for migrations?
