PHP
PHP (Hypertext Preprocessor) is a server-side scripting language that is widely used for web development. Originally created by Rasmus Lerdorf in 1994, PHP has evolved into one of the most popular programming languages for building dynamic websites, web applications, and server-side scripts.
The rundown
As enlightening as Javascript was, PHP was even moreso. It introduced me to the connection between the web world and databases, something I had already been experiencing with SQL classes on the software side and enjoyed quite a bit. Combining the two was an interesting experience. I worked on making a blog with a combination of PHP, HTML, and SQL code, and learned how to use PHP in the process of making this site more secure and functional.
