01 · FOUNDATION

PHP Core & Syntax

Master variables, control structures, functions, and object-oriented programming in PHP. Build a strong foundation for server-side application logic.

php
<?php

class Server
{
    public function init()
    {
        echo "Ready";
    }
}
02 · DATABASE

MySQL Integration

Connect PHP applications to MySQL databases. Learn secure PDO connections, prepared statements, database operations, and structured SQL queries.

php
$pdo = new PDO(
    $dsn,
    $user,
    $pass
);

$stmt = $pdo->prepare(
    "SELECT * FROM users"
);
03 · ARCHITECTURE

Backend Architecture

Structure applications using practical backend patterns. Implement routing, form handling, authentication, sessions, and organized server-side logic.

php
Router::get(
    '/dashboard',
    function () {
        return View::make(
            'dashboard'
        );
    }
);
04 · INTERFACE

Dynamic Views

Integrate PHP logic seamlessly with HTML and CSS. Build dynamic, data-driven templates that respond to server-side state.

php
<?php foreach (
    $users as $user
): ?>

    <li>
        <?= $user->name ?>
    </li>

<?php endforeach; ?>
