Course Overview

PHP Codeigniter MVC is a widely-used general-purpose scripting language that is especially suited for Web development and can be embedded into HTML.

CodeIgniter is based on the Model-View-Controller (MVC) development pattern. MVC is a software approach that separates application logic from presentation. In practice, it permits your web pages to contain minimal scripting since the presentation is separate from the PHP scripting.

PHP Codeigniter MVC can generate dynamic page content

The Model represents your data structures. Typically, your model classes will contain functions that help you retrieve, insert and update information in your database.

The View is information that is being presented to a user. A View will normally be a web page, but in CodeIgniter, a view can also be a page fragment like a header or footer. It can also be an RSS page, or any other type of “page”.

The Controller serves as an intermediary between the Model, the View, and any other resources needed to process the HTTP request and generate a web page.
