Course Description

Do you want to know all about PHP 7? Are you looking at learning a language that you can use to create robust web applications? If so, welcome to PHP 7 Simplified!

PHP 7 is a popular choice for web-based application development. It is lightweight, no-frills, and powerful. In a nutshell, PHP 7 lets us address the common requirements of current and future web and mobile application development.
PHP 7 Simplified exists as a blend of text, videos, code examples, and assessments, which together makes your learning and creating journey all the more effective.

We'll start off by getting the basics right. Once your foundational knowledge is firmly established, we'll put it to practical use by working on a small example application. Then, we'll move on to learning advanced programming methodologies such as high performance programming, functional programming, and object-oriented programming. The course is structured to ensure that you're learning about all the industry-standards along the way.
Further on, you'll build a user profile system, simple shopping cart, and social newsletter service.

Midway through, we'll learn how to interact with a database. Having done that, you'll be equipped to build even more complex applications.
We are not done yet. This course wouldn't be complete without us learning how to implement software design patterns, improve web security, and perform testing and debugging.
The goal of this course is to transform you into a complete PHP 7 developer.
This course is authored by some of the best in the fields.

First, the download .zip file doesn't even contain a "section01" folder, then when manually creating the folder and using -t to set section02 to the server path it blows up in the browser. The course keeps mentioning a "book" but never really says whether or not we need a book. Very poor job at explaining what is needed and what to ACTUALLY INSTALL.

very good

By Jake Householder

This course is marketed as an intro to PHP7 but I find it does not really get you off the ground very well. It isn't clear sometimes when he is describing a course exercise or if he is discussing something essential to PHP. I had to google around to get help just setting up a local test/dev environment.

In addition to leaving me confused off the gate seeking help elsewhere, the instructor continues into some exercises but doesn't explain some fundamentals of PHP. I have taken other courses for other languages/concepts that explain things with much more clarity.

I also grabbed another Packt Publishing course for magento 2. It seems to have similar problems out the gate. I will not be trying any other courses from "Packt Publishing" and no one else should pay them for these either.

Weird. It feels like a robot is teaching me.
