Hello everyone! Joined because I did a bit too much lurking and fell down the PHP rabbit hole. I did try to go through Learn PHP The Right Way but gave up. I suppose there's room for a second chance (after I couldn't wrap my head around Smarty and Twig).
I'm a hobbyist programmer and college student. I generally program in Python, having learned Java over 2020 and almost certainly forgotten about it, but there's something about PHP that seems interesting. Besides the fact a ton of websites run on it and it's easy to pick up (not necessarily master, though).
I did mess around with Symfony and Laravel (truth be told, I preferred the former more) but never really dipped my toes in far enough. Hopefully that will soon change.
