Hi everyone, I have used PHP previously (almost 10 years ago). I barely wrote any OOP PHP and did no use Laravel (on any other framework for that matter) and I learned it as I went. So I am trying to balance my will to learn modern PHP and Laravel with my tight schedule since I want to create a website with admin panels connecting to an existing SQL database whose schema is already in place (I can extend it, and I'm comfortable with SQL).

It would be very useful for me if you could pinpoint anything wrong with the minimal path I want to follow for the time being. I plan to watch the following series (skipping parts that I am familiar with):

1. PHP For Beginners
2. Object-Oriented Principles in PHP
3. SOLID Principles in PHP
4. Laravel From Scratch (2026)
5. Filament 5 in Depth

Anything you'd add, alter or maybe drop?

Thanks in advance
