Overview
AG Auth started out as a small, easy to use Authentication library for the CodeIgniter framework. Over time the library has grown and has now essentially become a platform for applications with it's easy to use interface and it's strong administration panel. AG Auth has established a strong brand within the CodeIgniter community and is constantly being updated and improved. The Library is mostly coded by Adam Griffiths, with some small changes being added in from other CodeIgniter developers.
AG Auth was built with simplicity and security in mind, so simple in fact that to use the library you write less characters than you would in a normal Controller.
