After that, increasingly complex courses await you for which you will already have the necessary knowledge to easily acquire new skills. The focus is on classic programming concepts, familiarization with the notions of variables, loops, strings and functions through PHP. The course covers elements specific to this language, as well as elements that are part of general programming conventions. The second part of the course aims to apply the acquired knowledge to manipulate data from MySQL databases, as well as to manage data from other sources such as the file system. In this part, learners also have the opportunity to familiarize themselves with security concepts within PHP, as well as user input validation, which will lay the foundations for creating functional and secure web applications.
