Welcome to Linux for PHP Developers

“

- [Instructor] Have you ever wondered what happens when you type a URL into the address bar of a browser and hit Enter? A single view of a website involves the coordination of dozens of technologies, such as web servers, databases, scripting languages, and more. In a world of turnkey solutions, it's important to understand how these fundamental systems work together. I'm Jon Peck, and I've been architecting large-scale web applications for more than a decade. In this course, we're going to install and configure a complete Linux-based web development server for PHP. We'll start by exploring how the fundamental components of the web work together. Then, we'll install and manage a complete Linux web server optimized for development. Finally, we'll learn how to troubleshoot each component effectively. Throughout this course, we'll explore and use common Linux commands, server components, and software useful for debunking and development. In the end, you'll have a virtual development server running like any other program in your existing operating system. So, no reformatting, additional hard work, or dual-booting is needed. I'm passionate about building great systems the right way, so let's get started.
