Finally, the final boss of the 100 seconds series
No matter how much hate PHP gets, it'll always have a special place in my heart. I built a crappy backend for a mobile app I made to enter a software competition back in 2012. All vanilla PHP, no frameworks. Good memories.
I've worked with php for 15 years and I loved every second of this basic explainer video
Never thought this day would come.
PHP is like that silent guy in the back that no one talks to or about but deeply inside they all know he's the boss.
Although I've been working for a while with JS, PHP has put food on the table for 9 years now <3
I’ve been using php for 22 years. And though it sounds like you’ve never used it, you did a bang up job explaining it in 100 seconds. Cheers
I have been doing PHP for more than 7 years now but still, love watching your video :) Thanks!
As a primary PHP dev, this video hit me in the feels.
Oh yes, PHP. Now I can't wait for Ruby on rails in 100 seconds 💎🎉
I have been coding in php since 2011. It has given me endless opportunities and made me the developer I am today. After learning laravel recently I don't think I will be abandoning php anytime soon.
PHP will always have a special place in my heart. At a time when, as a student, I was struggling to make ends meet, PHP freelance jobs were what kept me from sinking.
Though please be aware, modern PHP is very heavily typed. Variables are not typed, but object properties, function parameters, and function returns have a very robust type system to support them. They're all technically optional, but nearly all professional code these days is fairly heavily typed. It's also impressively fast for a nominally interpreted language. (It's actually compiled to bytecode first, then that's cached and executed.) We also basically never mix HTML and PHP in one file anymore. 🙂
That image that comes with "... modern pragmatic language ..."!!! Your choice of visual support is again and remains one of the best things of your 100sec videos!
Thank you! last night i was writing some php code for my own CMS to enable its own search engine. it worked well eventually. after every night in which i added some php codes to my CMS, in the next morning, i feel like i'am completed and rewarded of my own. still it is 7 months i started learning php properly. php is making my expectation fulfill. i am not a programmer in profession but love programming.
PHP is what made me choose Web development as my career. It's the language i used for building my thesis website in my final college years.
You missed the strong typing that it has as of PHP 7, it's a great addon that they added
PHP is one of the most hated just because it's one of the most used. Excellent video.
I've been 14 years since my journey begin as developer and still my main language is PHP. Really very nostalgic time when starting from vanilla, procedural PHP with mysql_connect function, then making my own framework(TBH sucks haha), then switching to Codeigniter then finally Laravel.
