Is PHP dead? What is the job outlook and future of PHP in the next five years?

Image
PHP is far from dead. Since we get similar questions all the time, I am just going to repeat an answer from another discussion. Is PHP still relevant as of 2019? COBOL, a 1959 dinosaur language deployed on few tens of thousands installations is still relevant in 2019. PHP is actively developed on 2019 and deployed on  several hundreds of millions installations . Therefore even  just  the “still widely used in many web apps” is plenty enough to justify learning it. Plus, PHP is so easy to learn and used everywhere that not knowing it is: a bad reference on your curriculum, like not knowing any shell or bash command. Sure, you can ignore those but it shows the moment you are assigned some simple tasks. Your boss will know. Your colleagues will know. Is PHP good for anything? PHP, especially after version 7.0, is fast, simple, very syntax rich. It comes with embedded security libraries while being the cheapest language available on every host provide...

PHP Frameworks Guide & Top 10 Best PHP Framework 2019

PHP is used by almost 83% of websites across the world and is thus one of the widely used languages for web design and development throughout the world. Rasmond Lerdoff did not develop it as a programming language. It originated simply to manage his personal website. But later the official version was released in 1997 after many months of beta tests and improvement work. PHP was earlier abbreviated as Personal Home Page but it is better known as Hypertext Preprocessor now. The latest version PHP 7 was aimed to optimize PHP performance by refactoring the Zend Engine and make use of more compact data structures with improved cache locality while retaining near-complete language compatibility. A framework is used for its faster development, easier maintainability, fewer issues, and better security reasons. Why use a top PHP Framework? There are some pretty reasons for using PHP frameworks: Organization of code and file is extremely easy Numerous libraries and tools a...

Learn 5 OOP Concepts in Java [With Code Examples]

Image
OOP Concepts has become an important part of software development. Writing Programs using Top down approach of traditional structured programming or Functional Programming method becomes difficult as the complexity of the program increases. This is where Object-oriented programming has its upper hand. OOP Concepts allow you to break these complex programs into small bites, which you can solve one by one. OOP is an effective model that allows your program to grow without becoming impossible to maintain. Add to it ubiquity of languages like Java and OOP Principles become need of the hour. OOP is a whole new way to address problems. Here you create a class, instead of writing a program, which has variables and functions. Objects are self-contained examples of that class and you have a control where you can make them interact with each other in many ways. This kind of encapsulation makes knowledge of Object-oriented Programming and its main Principles a must if you are...

3 Components of Java Programming Language

Image
Computer programming is a continuous and fastest changing arena. One of the purpose of programming is to find a solution to a problem in a typical way. Programmers always need to stay relevant and address new challenges, besides having a very good programming knowledge, it is very important that they also understand the internal structure of the environment in which they are the writing the code. In this blog we are going to discuss 3 important components of Java Programming language; knowing these 3 components is must for any Java developer. We also suggest you to read our blog on   Learn 7 Basics of Java Programming to Start Coding Today   which discusses the basic concepts of Java Programming. A Java Programmer writes a program in a human-readable language, called   Source Code . The CPU or Central Processing Unit or Chips do not understand the Source code written in any programming language. These Chips or Computers understands only one thing:   Machine Co...
