Training Course in Server-Side Web Development with PHP and Laravel (Online / Remote)
1Summary
Roughly three out of every four websites on the internet — from small business pages to platforms like Facebook and Yahoo — run on a language called PHP. Built to power web pages from the ground up and now the backbone of frameworks like Laravel, PHP owes its dominance to how quickly developers can learn it, and how naturally it connects to databases. The Arab British Fellowship Training Academy designed this course to put that dominance to practical use, drawing on decades of open-source development that has kept extending PHP with new capabilities.
Participants start from the fundamentals of how a browser talks to a server, then move into the Laravel framework and MVC architecture, building real projects along the way — a task manager, a RESTful API, a photo-sharing network similar to Instagram, a classified-ads site, a content management system, and professional WordPress templates.
