CodeIgniter Repositories

The CodeIgniter 4 open source project has its own Github organization.

There are several development repositories, of interest to potential contributors:

Repository	Audience	Description
CodeIgniter4	contributors	Project codebase, including tests & user guide sources
translations	developers	System message translations
coding-standard	contributors	Coding style conventions & rules

There are also several deployment repositories, referenced in the installation directions. The deployment repositories are built automatically when a new version is released, and they are not directly contributed to.

Repository	Audience	Description
framework	developers	Released versions of the framework
appstarter	developers	Starter project (app/public/writable). Dependent on “framework”
userguide	anyone	Pre-built user guide

In all the above, the latest version of a repository can be downloaded by selecting the “releases” link in the secondary navbar inside the “Code” tab of its Github repository page. The current (in development) version of each can be cloned or downloaded by selecting the “Clone or download” dropdown button on the right-hand side if the repository homepage.

Composer Packages

We also maintain composer-installable packages on packagist.org. These correspond to the repositories mentioned above:

• codeigniter4/framework
• codeigniter4/appstarter
• codeigniter4/translations
• codeigniter4/coding-standard

See the Installation page for more information.

CodeIgniter 4 Projects

We maintain a codeigniter4projects organization on Github as well, with projects that are not part of the framework, but which showcase it or make it easier to work with!

Repository	Audience	Description
website2	developers	The codeigniter.com website, written in CodeIgniter 4

These are not composer-installable repositories.
