Making our site more scalable and our code more reusable

CI makes extensive use of libraries, helpers, and plugins. This makes coding very easy and modular. Moreover, we can create our own libraries or place third-party code in a library. This way we can make use of code from our previous projects or, as we have said, third-party code. This way we can reuse code from one site on another very easily. Libraries can be very modular, and to use them in another project we simply copy them.

Note

Benefits are:

We can reuse code easily from one project for another, creating our own CI libraries, helpers, and so on.
