Learn PHP fundamentals then build a job listing website from the ground up, using a Laravel-like infrastructure

What you'll learn

Learn the fundamentals of PHP programming

Learning modules for data types, functions, loops, OOP, databases and more

Build a job listing website from the ground up without using any frameworks or libraries

Create a custom Laravel-like router that takes params & middleware

Learn to utilize namespaces and PSR-4 Autoloading

Build an authentication system using sessions

Great precursor if you plan on learning Laravel

Requirements

You only need to know the basics of HTML

Description

This course is broken up into two parts. First, we have seven learning modules to learn the fundamentals of PHP programming, including:Data Types & VariablesArrays & IterationControl Structures & ConditionalsFunctions & ScopeObject Oriented ProgrammingSuperglobals ($_GET, $_POST, $_SESSION, $_COOKIES, etc)Database Integration & PDOAfter that, we go for a hands-on approach and build a job listing website. We build this from the ground up without any framework or libraries. These sections will teach you how to structure a vanilla PHP project and is a great precursor to learning Laravel or another framework.Here is what we will do in the project videos:We will create a custom Laravel-like router. We will refactor this a bunch of times to keep adding features like accepting HTTP methods, params and middleware.We will structure our project into two main folders, which will be called Framework and App. Framework will be the core that includes classes like Router, Database, Validation, and Session. App will include our controllers and views.We will create CRUD operations for job listings.We will implement an authentication and authorization system as well as protect routes using custom middleware.We will add a search feature to search/filter listings by keywords and/or locationWe will learn to validate and sanitize data as well as use prepared statements with PDO to protect against SQL injection attacks.If you are a beginner, I suggest taking the course from the beginning and go through all of the learning modules. If you are more experienced and know the fundamentals, you can jump right into the project.
