CodeIgniter

CodeIgniter developers, for the systems nobody else wants to touch

Plenty of solid businesses still run happily on CodeIgniter, and there's no shame in that. We maintain and extend a lot of these systems, and over the years we've worked with companies including Telegraph Media Group and Hearst.

You'll be talking to one of us, not a salesperson.

Lost your developer?

A great many business-critical web applications run on CodeIgniter 3 or earlier. The original developer moves on, the agency closes, and suddenly nobody knows the framework or wants to learn it.

This is a big part of what we do. We take on the code, read it properly, document what we find, review the security and carry on from there.

What we do with it

  • Take it on

    Code review, documentation and a security check, then ongoing support and development.

  • CodeIgniter 3 to 4

    CodeIgniter 3 is no longer officially maintained. We'll tell you honestly whether moving to 4 makes sense for your app, and if so, do it without breaking what works.

  • Make it quicker

    Slow queries, missing indexes and clumsy data access, diagnosed and fixed at the cause.

  • Connect it

    APIs and integrations with the rest of your business.

  • New builds

    When a job is well scoped and doesn't need the weight of Laravel, CodeIgniter is quick and lean. We'll tell you if something else would suit you better.

Old isn't the same as broken.

You don't need to rewrite a working system because its framework has gone out of fashion. But you do need to know where you stand: an unmaintained framework on an old PHP version doesn't get safer with age.

Sometimes the answer is to keep it healthy. Sometimes it's a careful move to something newer. We'll give you the trade-offs first, not a pitch for whatever we'd rather be building.

Tell us what you've got

It goes straight to Rob and Jase. You'll hear back from one of us, usually the same day, and we'll tell you honestly whether we're the right people.
