Learning a programming language is one thing and using it to build something great is another. I've been teaching code newbies and aspiring developers for a long time and I see many of them struggling to put into practice their newly acquired skills. I've also noticed that many resources on the Internet are out-of-date, misleading, or don't provide real hands-on practice.

I've built this course to fix the issues above. You'll learn a better way to build a modern and production-ready PHP app connected to a database like a pro. The app, a CRUD one, will also have some more advanced features like I/O security, router, and more. 

At the end of this course, you'll be well equipped to build database apps with PHP.

Hands-on PHP & MySQL: Build a CRUD Application

Model View Controller (MVC) is an architectural pattern, which is mostly used in OOP frameworks like Laravel or Symfony to break up code into three logical components that serve specific purposes. These components can be found in the name of the pattern:
- **Model** represents the data or business logic.
- **Controller** handles requests, processes data, and loads the appropriate view. 
- **View** represents the visualization of the data to the client (browser). This can also be defined as the presentation logic.

Let's see the MVC interaction in the diagram below:
