Web Application Development with PHP

Course Details

Background

PHP is an open source scripting language that can be used to write websites and any kind of web-based application and service. Wikipedia, Vimeo, Etsy, Mailchimp, Yahoo, Wordpress, Flickr, and Magento are just a few of the commercial web apps written in the language. PHP just like MariaDB is open source and free, you don’t need to pay for you to get PHP; all you have to do is download it.
Other benefit that you get with PHP is that it’s a server side scripting language; this means you only need to install it on the server and client computers requesting for the resources from the server do not need to have PHP installed; only a web browser would be enough.
