<?php
class Shop extends Controller
{
function Shop()
{
parent::Controller();
}
function index()
{
$this->load->view('home');
}
}

We are only defining the class, the constructor, and creating an index method, which calls the view. This view will be the place where we build our list of products, but for now create the file in application/views/home.php, and place some simple content in it:

<h1>This is our shop home page</h1>

If we want to check that everything is working fine, we only need to go to http://localhost/codeigniterc/index.php/shop ...
