#Developer Notes

##Programming Style
Follow the CodeIgniter [Style Guide](https://github.com/timw4mail/CodeIgniter/blob/develop/user_guide_src/source/general/styleguide.rst) - and:

* Do not use spaces to align code
* Do not use `global`, `eval`
* Do not use the error suppressor `@`
* Add a docblock to every method
* Use [heredoc](http://us2.php.net/manual/en/language.types.string.php#language.types.string.syntax.heredoc) string syntax for multi-line SQL statements to minimize PHP escape characters
* Use prepared statements whenever possible
