STUDENT REVIEW: ” Amazing”

STUDENT REVIEW: “I’ve enrolled in many courses here on Udemy and to be honest I’ve abandoned most of them because they are like entertainment to me. I classify them as entertainment because knowledge without action is entertainment. This course is outstandingly different, since as you learn you’re challenged to act on that knowledge. I’m now a better programmer as a result of taking this course, previously I used to struggle with transferring my real world logic to computer code. I’m in no way saying that I’m an expert now but my thought process has been adjusted due to Mr. Morrow’s effective teaching method.”

STUDENT REVIEW: “This was my first intro to php (in preparation for the php section of my coding bootcamp class I’m currently enrolled in), and the instructor explained everything really well. The pace was just right (for me). I already purchased his php part 2 course, so I can’t wait to get into that! Excellent course, content, and instructor!”

STUDENT REVIEW: “Enjoyed this course and learned quite a bit, having the challenges to do, made me use my brain. Excellent instruction. Thank you Patrick. Now time to move onto your next course on PHP and MySQL.”

STUDENT REVIEW: “Excellent beginner course, with practical and realistic tasks. Very efficient”

STUDENT REVIEW: “Now that I completed the course, I must say this is one of the best online courses that I participated in.The material is represented systematically, step by step and really every line of code is explained. The good practices are encouraged and as a content the really qualitative ground basic knowledge is taught. What really impressed me is that every example seems thoughtfully prepared in advance, no meaningless examples can be found, like in some other courses. The author encourages self development and the tasks are carefully prepared, to confirm the knowledge taught and to develop thinking and skills. I am really impressed!”

The above are just a few of many 100s of positive reviews.  I encourage you to follow the first 4 sections of this course FREE of charge to see if it matches your needs and preferred learning style.  If it does then join the full course and follow the remainder of the course with full support.

THE DEVELOPMENT ENVIRONMENT

IMPORTANT: Please read carefully

You are free to use ANY development environment including the one that you are already using (if any). In this course I provide you with instructions on how to set up a free option and a paid option, depending on your needs.  Personally, I use CodeAnywhere (paid option) in this course but I also show you how to download and install Visual Studio Code and MAMP (free option).  Both options are very similar in look and layout so you can easily transfer between them.

If you have never coded PHP before then you may not be aware that the code needs to be run by the server engine prior to being displayed on your browser as HTML.  You therefore need to set up your server environment correctly. If you do not have experience of setting up a server environment then simply use CodeAnywhere.

Due to the huge number of possible platforms and editors I cannot offer support for every third party development environment.  However, I will happily support you if using CodeAnywhere or Visual Studio Code and MAMP. I am also happy to offer you advice on the best environment for your needs and situation…simply contact me to ask.

There are many benefits of using CodeAnywhere including:

1. there is a free 7 day trial if you would like to test the environment with a 2 hour limit per day.  If you do like it then you can get the paid version for only $3 per month (or $1.50 with 50% off voucher code…just ask).  Otherwise feel free to use any alternative PHP development environment.
2. it is cloud based so you can use any computer to login
3. if you are having any issues with code during the course you can easily share your code with me
4. if you need additional help with your server then I can log in and help (provided you are willing to allow me)
5. if you wish to upgrade CodeAnywhere to a professional account later then you can (otherwise just use the free version)

If you experience any issues with setting up your PHP for Beginners coding environment on CodeAnywhere then please let me know via a private message and I will happily help you out.

If you are unsure about which code editor option is best for you then I encourage you to contact me and I will be happy to discuss the options with you.

You can also follow this course using your own preferred code editor.

Once again, using CodeAnywhere or Visual Studio Code with MAMP are OPTIONAL. You can use ANY development environment of your choosing.
