I recommend this book to anyone who is planning on using CodeIgniter to build web apps. The sections on the first steps towards scaling your app, and extending CodeIgniter itself make this book stand out from the crowd. Today's Web 2.0 is demanding more with less. CodeIgniter, an up-and-coming PHP-based Web application development framework that leaves a little footprint, rises to the challenge.This is a must have book for reference - covers everything in detail.
