my php pointers
1.0.0
By Alex Billson
The main reason I've written this guide is so that I have a decent reference to give people when they come to me asking about PHP.
Let me preface this by saying I no longer do much dev work in PHP; much more on the .NET side of things these days so whilst I still do web development it's more with tech such as ASP.NET and more frontend technologies.
This repo doesn't exist to provide a comprehensive tutorial, if anything just set the foundations for someone who's moderately interested in PHP. There is an emphasis on PHP as both a scripting and a web language, so keep this in mind when I write a couple of examples using the Command Line as a target not a browser.
This tutorial cannot be taken as the tutorial to end all tutorials. There's plenty of those on the internet and I recommend you do some snooping around after this tutorial or look into large PHP projects like CakePHP and Laravel if you're interested in developing large PHP applications.
