ggkfc Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 im a newbie programmer (only proficient in Visual Basic) but im interested in learning php + mysql, so i brought it on myself to see if i could clone hobowars (www.hobowars.com) it seems easy enuf. a mysql to contain information, php to do formulas equations. the forum system and view online etc, im sure i can just get from free source code places. but ive had some difficulty with user authentication (but it has worked- basic only) do you think my task is achievable and are there mentor places for some gurus to help out a newb? if there are any other newbs that would be interested in learning about php + mysql and want to be involved, pm me =) thanks, gg Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/77676-do-you-think-i-can-make-it/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcus Posted November 17, 2007 Share Posted November 17, 2007 If you have like, one weeks knowledge of PHP, it's going to be a lot harder than it would be with 1 years knowledge. But yeah, recreating hobowars is possible, even though the site is pointless.
