Course Description

This completes it...
PHP is the stepping stone to your first professional development gigs
PHP is the most popular back end language on the web.
Companies like Facebook and Tumblr use PHP as their primary back end coding language. It's in universal demands, and, as a new developer you're expected to know you're way around the front end and the back end. That's where PHP comes in.
There was a time when a web developer could get away with knowing just HTML and some Javascript-- but now as employers are looking for more value, you have to know more. PHP lets you access an entire world of backend databases, like mySQL which is introduced in this course.
FACT: With PHP knowledge you'll be able to complete more advanced projects and be more employable.
People ask all the time: What's the best past to becoming a professional developer?
People going in to web development need two types of technical knowledge. First, they need to know how to manipulate content in a browser. That's where HTML5 and Javascript come in. But they also need to be able to interact with backend systems-- like eCommerce systems, databases and content management systems.
With PHP, developers:
  • Create systems by which data can be stored and retrieved in a database
  • Interact with eCommerce systems facilitating sales, credit card processing and shipping all over the world
  • Create complex content and customer management systems customized for industry use.
  • Create plugins and customizations for the most the most popular content management systems in the world-- Wordpress, Drupal and Joomla (all of which are written in PHP!)
Who this course is for:
  • New developers who want to add PHP to their tool aresneal
  • Web Designers who want to start writing code
  • Teachers and students
  • Current developers who need to learn PHP

Mark's easy going, you can learn this, nature makes the course enjoyable so far. I'm really looking forward to learning more.

By Todd Casey

Yay! Thank you. This course is so far very organized, thorough, and starts with first things first:

1 - Getting and setting up a good editor which is free

2 - Getting and setting up a good software, which is free, for running php on pc or mac

By Robert Pendergrast

He does a very good job of explaining PHP functions with good examples.

By Catalina Strava

very good course, hands on. but is requires previous syntax & html knowledge

By Kelvin Nunn

good course with well explained tutorial. as already mentioned though would be better if video placement was away from code and course material was available .

By Sudhakar
