title: To use codeigniter framework or standard php?
body: <p>Discussed this with a developer as I suggested to use CodeIgniter framework over standard PHP.</p>
  
  <p>Their response was as follows:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>Advantages of Code Igniter include standardised MVC structure.
    Disadvantages include the fact that you need the whole framework even if you dont need to use it all and also a bit slower for the team to roll out the project. Advantages of our normal Custom PHP framework - fast to develop and totally flexible, only need the code that is relevant.</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>Would you agree with their response and why?
  I always though CI was quicker to roll out due to the use of short tags and freely available modules.</p>
