Study guide
In this lab you build PHP applications: scripts for form input, conditions and loops, GET and POST feedback forms, a text-file-backed contact form, a session-based login system, MySQL-backed user registration, a mini project (blog, inventory manager or task tracker), deployment on a local server or free hosting, showing database data in tables, and using XAMPP, WAMP or LAMP, phpMyAdmin and Git and GitHub basics. Put your mini project on GitHub; it doubles as a portfolio entry.
Why Web Programming-I Laboratory Matters
The mini project and GitHub habit from this lab give you something concrete to show in internships and interviews.
How to Prepare for Web Programming-I Laboratory
- Pick a mini project early and build it a little every week.
- Commit your work to GitHub regularly with clear messages.
- Test login and registration with wrong inputs as well as correct ones.
