PHP is one of the most popular languages for web development, but how do you go from writing simple scripts to building robust, modern applications? This hands-on guide provides the path, taking you from the core principles of the language to the real-world practices of professional web development. This book is the bridge from theory to practice. You'll start with the fundamentals and progress systematically through object-oriented programming, database interaction, and dependency management with Composer. Each chapter builds on the last, culminating in a final project where you will build a complete blog application from the ground up, solidifying your skills and giving you the confidence to tackle your own projects. What you will learn: Grasp the fundamentals: Learn how PHP works, from data types and control structures to functions and file system interaction. Master Object-Oriented PHP (OOP): Write organized, reusable, and maintainable code by deeply understanding classes, objects, inheritance, and interfaces. Connect your code to a database: Learn the basics of SQL and use PHP's modern PDO extension to safely interact with a database, including how to prevent SQL injection with prepared statements. Work with professional tools: Use Composer, the essential tool for dependency management in all modern PHP projects, to manage libraries and autoload your code. Build a complete project: Apply your knowledge by creating a simple blog application with full CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) functionality. Whether you are new to programming or coming from another language, this book will give you the solid, practical foundation you need. By the end, you won't just know PHP; you'll know how to think and build like a modern PHP developer.
