Finally, the final boss of the 100 seconds series

No matter how much hate PHP gets, it'll always have a special place in my heart. I built a crappy backend for a mobile app I made to enter a software competition back in 2012. All vanilla PHP, no frameworks. Good memories.

Although I've been working for a while with JS, PHP has put food on the table for 9 years now <3

Oh yes, PHP. Now I can't wait for Ruby on rails in 100 seconds 💎🎉

I've worked with php for 15 years and I loved every second of this basic explainer video

PHP is like that silent guy in the back that no one talks to or about but deeply inside they all know he's the boss.

I’ve been using php for 22 years. And though it sounds like you’ve never used it, you did a bang up job explaining it in 100 seconds. Cheers

I have been doing PHP for more than 7 years now but still, love watching your video :) Thanks!

THAT’S WHY IT’S PHP

That acronym drove me insane for so long and somehow no one I’ve asked knew it’s origin

I can finally free myself of this burden lmao

As a primary PHP dev, this video hit me in the feels.

Though please be aware, modern PHP is very heavily typed. Variables are not typed, but object properties, function parameters, and function returns have a very robust type system to support them. They're all technically optional, but nearly all professional code these days is fairly heavily typed. It's also impressively fast for a nominally interpreted language. (It's actually compiled to bytecode first, then that's cached and executed.)

We also basically never mix HTML and PHP in one file anymore. 🙂

PHP will always have a special place in my heart. At a time when, as a student, I was struggling to make ends meet, PHP freelance jobs were what kept me from sinking.

As a Laravel developer, I was waiting for this.

I’ve been using php for 100 years. And though it sounds like you’ve never used it, you did a bang up job explaining it in 100 seconds. Cheers

You missed the strong typing that it has as of PHP 7, it's a great addon that they added

[yanskidoodle]

This made me miss PHP. It hasn't been long, only about 8 months since I last coded in PHP, but I do miss it 😂

[AntonioSchiavon]

I can't wait for Elixir and Phoenix in 100 seconds 💧🔥

[RobertWildling]

That image that comes with "... modern pragmatic language ..."!!! Your choice of visual support is again and remains one of the best things of your 100sec videos!

[hypergraphic]

Ahh it brings back memories. PHP is like my first car, not that great, but it took me where I wanted to go.

[codeandwrite]

I have been coding in php since 2011. It has given me endless opportunities and made me the developer I am today. After learning laravel recently I don't think I will be abandoning php anytime soon.
