Hi there,

The answer really depends on where you are in your PHP journey.

Luckily there's a PHP track for you on Treehouse for your level.

For absolute beginners, there's a Beginning PHP Track. This will walk you through the basics of the language and how to set up a local development environment.

But if you're already down with the basics you can move onto intermediate PHP and then later on to Object Oriented PHP which takes your PHP skills to another level. Intermediate PHP will show you how to use Databases with PHP to create more dynamic websites.

I hope this gives you an idea with what you'd like to explore with PHP on Treehouse. :)

Thanks for the reply im currently finished the php basics course on the beginning php track. so in your experience i should follow the tracks first and then fill with the workshops?

because there is a workshop called intro to php7 which is the latest features to php. this is the course u talked about in your discussion? https://teamtreehouse.com/library/build-a-basic-php-website

so your saying that the tracks are in good shape?

I believe they are, yes. :)

Yes that's the course I was referring to. There's a second course after it that makes the course more dynamic with SQL functionality. That's in the Intermediate Python track.
