Modern Web Development with Laravel 5.2 (PHP Framework)

Course details

This course uses Laravel 5.2. You learned the basics but still feel like something's missing? You want to get your development skills to the next level?

Already got the basics about PHP, HTML and CSS? Still struggling to start off your career? Or maybe you're interested in broadening your skills and want to be a more confident web developer? Whatever your reasons are, this course will take your web development skills to the next level!

While knowing all the basics is absolutely necessary it also isn't enough. 8 years ago you might've been a good web developer, just coding single PHP files and spaghetti-coding them together. Nowadays that will not suffice.

Become more efficient, enjoy the fun parts!

Today's websites need to be easily scalable, offer a nice user experience, be responsive, fast, error-tolerant and obviously safe. Taking care of all this on your own will at least cost you immense amounts of time. In the worst case it will result in slow or insecure web applications - no one wants that!

Modern PHP development absolutely required you to be familiar with at least one of the major PHP frameworks out there. Being a confident developer in such a framework will instantly boost your productivity! I'm able to setup customized CMS-Applications within hours. That leaves much more time for important things like getting your business logic right and optimizing the user experience!
