Hello Abhinav, thank you VERY MUCH for uploading this great hands-on tutorial!
I was ..somewhat regretting that I fully switched to Linux(as a Windows user) not realllly knowing what is going on and how to get things going. I mean, on a deeper technical level and purely from the command-line. Ubuntu 20.4/22.4 makes using the GUI for everything relatively easy, so every time I needed to do something on the command-line I "googled my way around".

And as somehow I am having problems properly using xampp/lampp on linux, I am very grateful that your tutorial ACTUALLY got me running!

Now I can just continue with my PHP learning without having to learn Linux/Bash FIRST, but can learn it step by step along the way.

Also, made me want to finally watch/work through the many "learn docker" youtube videos I bookmarked and never yet watched ;-)

This comment is a bit long.. But it's an honest one. Thank you! Found you by accident -> happy new subscriber! :-)
