My latest self project is coming off really well. In the last 2 days, I have made quite a progress.

Codeigniter + Template = Igniteplate

This is how the name came up and since then I never bothered to delve more into then name. I find it stupid to find reasons and change things when I have started work on them.

The Changes

So, the latest changes in Igniteplate are –

  1. Change in design and layout.
  2. Twitter Bootstrap 2.0
  3. Prefixfree
  4. Documentation
  5. A temporary logo
  6. Font Awesome instead of the default glyphicons
  7. A trello board

Change in design and layout

This was my first concern to deal with once I had started work on it. For the last 6 months, all my CI projects had a similar layout and it wasn’t very flexible. The current layout gives me more scope for new elements to be placed here and there.

Twitter Bootstrap 2.0

I have upgraded the Twitter bootstrap version and made all the required changes.

Prefixfree

No more headaches of putting vendor prefixes before my css properties. Prefixfree does it all for me.

Documentation

I have started documenting all my work on Igniteplate and created a simple help book so far. Will continue to add more content to it.

This is the temporary logo for Igniteplate.

I have just colored it. That’s all I did. The two parts are from The Noun Project.

I used a fire logo and a plate logo and came up with this. Even if I continue to use this, I need to make it more intricate, as I find this really stupid and simple.

Font Awesome instead of the default glyphicons

The reason for this shift is that a font gives me more freedom for playing with the size and colors of each element.

This is what font awesome is.

A trello board

Instead of posting more and more twitter updates on this. Checkout the Igniteplate board on Trello.

Checkout Igniteplate on github.

I am working on Social Auth at the moment. Should take me another week to get done with it and come out with a version 1.4
