Migrate away from CodeIgniter3, update to newer web standards

Opened this issue · 0 comments

Kalkun is based on the CodeIgniter 3 (CI3) framework. Its code is hosted at: https://github.com/bcit-ci/CodeIgniter

CI3 releases are becoming rare or coming a long time after PHP releases which can be a problem because of the deprecations introduced in each new version of PHP.

Any help is welcome to

  • migrate away from CI3
  • update Kalkun to newer Web standard (other framework (CodeIgniter 4?, other?) , responsive webdesign...)

There is no specific tool or framework in mind. However The components used in Kalkun should have DFSG compatible licenses.

I think for that change we don't have to stick supporting PHP 5.6 as Kalkun 0.8 currently does. The minimal required version of PHP can be bumped.

Anyone having ideas and willing to develop it can comment on Discussion #515.
