Packt is pleased to announce PHP Team Development, a new book that helps PHP developers work effectively as a team by breaking up complex PHP projects into manageable sub-parts. Written by Samisa Abeysinghe, this book is a precise guide with examples to illustrate practical benefits and to effectively use PHP frameworks to achieve project success.
PHP is a widely used, general-purpose scripting language that was originally designed for web development, to produce dynamic web pages. This free software can be embedded into HTML and generally runs on a web server, which needs to be configured to process PHP code and create web page content from it. PHP has evolved to include a command line interface capability and can also be used in standalone graphical applications.
The PHP Team Development book reduces development time by using MVC to break down complexity in PHP projects and helps catch and eliminate bugs early using source control and bug tracking tools, thereby reducing the development time. This book helps apply techniques related to process models, collaboration among team members, and continuous long-term improvement.
This book looks into PHP projects mainly from an enterprise view, and each chapter focuses specifically on how the techniques covered will make team work easier. This book blends the simplicity and power of PHP with evolving software engineering principles and tools to easily develop code that is easy to maintain.
This book is for PHP developers who work in teams on complex PHP projects, as well as for project managers who are looking to be successful with PHP projects.
