Welcome to the first day of your PHP learning journey!

Today you are going to learn the very foundations of the PHP programming language.

First, we will be going through some basic web development concepts, including the difference between client-side and server-side programming and how PHP is related to HTML.

Next, you will be guided into setting up your local development environment, so you can start writing PHP code and practicing on your computer right away.

By the end of the day, you will be ready to start coding in PHP on your computer.

These lessons are very important for beginners, so make sure that everything is clear to you.

It's also very important that you install a local development environment, as explained in the next lessons. You are going to use it for the exercises throughout this course.
