TechLeads scans public websites and detects CodeIgniter from signals in the page HTML, scripts, cookies, HTTP headers and DNS records. Market share is CodeIgniter's website count divided by the website counts of all Web frameworks technologies we track; a site using two Web frameworks tools counts for both. Counts were last refreshed on October 8, 2026 and update daily.
