The future of Codeigniter

@codeNet
His code generator is... not something new. Other frameworks (I don't know about CI) allow you to generate boilerplate code for CRUD operations or for authentications etc. The only thing he's done is build an interface with electron to do that job because he is apparently allergic to the terminal. Everybody could do that with some minimum knowledge of JS.

Personally I find next to 0 use case for this and would certainly not buy, I could make my own however I just use snippets and other projects I have worked on for that purpose. I guess to each their own.

"The dogs bark, but the caravan goes by"

I know the concept is nothing new, but it was a step-up from CRUDigniter for generating the boilerplate code. Re the other frameworks, please let me know what you refer to here? I would like to try them out. I know Yii has 'GUI', which allows for crud to be created from inside the app, this is a much better idea than a separate electron app IMO and is something CI would benefit from.

I can see a huge use case when creating apps from scratch with a tool like this, As you say - each to their own.

Well, not sure if it's appropriate to post this here, but look at SF for instance for authentication page: https://symfony.com/doc/current/security...setup.html

I am sure your favourite search engine will help you find those.

I also work with Spring Boot (Java) and you literaly write almost no line of code for things like authentication or CRUD operations and many many other things. This enables you to quickly focus on your business logic. Really, my point being that the problem he is trying to solve... has already been solved and in a much better way than his "code generator".
