CodeIgniter - a Rails-like PHP framework
I haven't been this excited about a framework since Groovy. CodeIgniter is a rails-like php framework that allows for rapid development using a REST Model-View-Controller, comes with a basic scaffolding, an assort of core classes and excellent documentation. Although many of the implementation may simply skip the model, consisting of only View-Controller.
Each RESTful request may be called as:
www.{domain-name}.com/class/function/ID
The existing CI components can be expanded using:
* Helpers
* Plugins
* Libraries
* Classes
* Hooks
Also of note is a handy authentication module FreakAuth, I'm not sure why they chose GD2 as the image library of choice for CAPTCHA.
