Create the basic directories and files for Your application. Kevin teaches a standard way to structure Your application which can be used for any project and explains why the directory structure and file names matter.
- [Instructor] Now that we have…a blueprint for our application,…let's begin creating the project files…that we're going to need.…I use a standard structure for all of my php projects…and it looks something like this.…I have the main project directory,…here I've just called it basic_php_project/,…but I would rename it to be whatever the project name was.…But then, inside of there,…I've got two subdirectories, or folders.…One is called public/ and one is called private/.…The idea is that we configure our web server…to serve content from the public directory.…
In other words, public/ becomes our web document route.…If our website was called coolsite.com,…then a request for coolsite.com would come to our web server…and our web server would look…for files in this public directory.…Therefore, everything in public/ is public.…This is the place where we'd put all of the webpages…that a user ought to be able to see, as well as images,…style sheets, java scripts, or any other media…or assets that our website needs to function.…
