1. Description

Mysqli2 is an enhanced wrapper around PHP's native MySQLi extension that provides simplified prepared statement execution, better error handling, and development/production mode switching. The class extends mysqli, inheriting all native MySQLi methods while adding streamlined functionality.

Key Features

• Singleton Pattern: Single database connection instance
• Development/Production Modes: Configurable error reporting
• Simplified Prepared Statements: Streamlined syntax for common operations
• Smart Return Values: Context-aware return types based on SQL operation
• Exception Handling: Optional exception throwing with detailed error information
