Be part of JetBrains PHPverse 2026 on June 9 – a free online event bringing PHP devs worldwide together.
I looked at some Udemy courses but most seem outdated now (Colt Steele etc), saw a comment where someone mentioned laracasts, is it geared more towards Laravel framework or their courses can be useful to learn PHP too?
One of the reasons I want to learn PHP as my first backend language is because it's the only language that doesn't require me to learn npm, gulp, github and what not. https://192168101.dev/ https://19216811.life/ https://100001.link/
The basics yes but not the kind of knowledge that the writer, Taylor knows who wrote the framework.
But yes take some of the basic videos, as you learn look up other tutorials online. But as you learn practice the code and don't just watch videos only.
you really begin learning when you write the code yourself and work out problems.
