PHP Weekly 6th January 2022

Hi everyone,

The beginning of the year is always lean content-wise as some people are still in full holiday mode, while some are still easing back into their normal routine. Nonetheless, despite that fact we were still able to collect a lot of useful articles for you to catch up on things PHP and help you jump-start your year/week/day. We do hope you enjoy this week’s issue as it has a couple of roundup articles on the best tutorials, trends and more to help you navigate through the new year.

As always, if you have anything to contribute please email us at articles@phpweekly.com as we truly appreciate your feedback. Do follow us on our social media channels on Twitter and Facebook.

You can connect with me on LinkedIn:
