Summary
-------

[](#summary)

Some basic helpers when using with CodeIgniter 3.

Can be included in many other code sets or frameworks, however, there are some functions that require the `CodeIgniter`framework, however it does not affect the performance

In case of integrating this package into other frameworks, sources other than `CodeIgniter`, you need to install the `nguyenanhung/polyfill-codeigniter-built-in` package for best use

Some frameworks I often use with this package are

- CodeIgniter
- Slim framework
- FuelPHP
- PhalconPHP
- Laravel
