Course Description

This extended back-end path combines PHP fundamentals, SQL and database design, and the Laravel framework into one complete track. Instead of small, disconnected exercises, you'll design and build a real business management system — from database design through to a working, searchable admin interface. You'll learn Git & GitHub for real developer collaboration, use AI tools to work faster while understanding every line, build and secure a REST API, and deploy the finished application to a live server. The path closes with a capstone project, final exam and certificate of completion.
