composer install
Create a database named (for example) skeleton with the collating option utf8_general_ci
Import the schema by using the SQL script provided into the SQL folder.
Edit the file application/config/database.php and point to your database.
By default, the skeleton application uses a prefix (skeleton_) for all tables.
This behaviour can be changed by editing the databases options along with the name into the database.
The default user is admin and its password is password.
/!\ IMPORTANT: Please change the name of the session cookie by opening application/config/config.php and change the value of sess_cookie_name with the name of your application. For example:
$config['sess_cookie_name'] = 'ci_session';
Would become:
$config['sess_cookie_name'] = 'my_application_session';
