Build a PHP Micro-Framework from Scratch

Do you want to move beyond simple scripts and understand how professional PHP applications are structured? Building a micro-framework is the best way to grasp the core mechanics that power major web applications. This course transforms you from a basic PHP coder into an engineer who understands the architecture and design patterns behind modern frameworks. You will gain practical knowledge of MVC, routing configuration, and secure request processing. What you'll learn: * Understand the Model-View-Controller (MVC) pattern and how to separate application concerns effectively. * Configure a project environment using Composer for dependency management and class autoloading. * Design a custom routing system to map URLs to controller actions, including dynamic parameter handling. * Implement secure templating with data injection to render dynamic views and ensure output safety. * Apply best practices for handling incoming HTTP requests, including processing form submissions and file uploads. The course begins with foundational PHP concepts and project setup, then progresses through the implementation of core framework components: the router, the controller dispatcher, and the view layer. We emphasize clear, maintainable code structure throughout. This course is designed for beginner PHP developers who know basic syntax and want to learn architectural patterns. No prior experience with frameworks or complex design patterns is required. Start building the foundation for powerful web applications today.
