This course is for PHP web developers who want to build RESTful web services using PHP and Laravel in simple and easy steps.

PHP 7 with added features and Laravel, being the best and the most widely used PHP framework with its expressive and elegant syntax will ease your way of developing robust feature-rich websites, web applications, and web services. If you are a PHP developer who wants to build applications on the latest versions of PHP and Laravel by creating RESTful APIs, then go for this course.

This comprehensive 2-in-1 course is a step-by-step tutorial which is a perfect course to create and learn the use of REST APIs to make fully-functioning PHP applications. You will first learn the basic concepts associated with the REST architectural style. You will then learn to build a complete web service in vanilla PHP. You will also create, test, and secure your APIs by taking an example of a weather application which provides weather information from multiple sources. In this application, you will learn to use multiple libraries and technologies like Dingo API for routing, JSON web tokens for authentication, and Travis CI for continuous integration and testing. This course covers in-depth content with tutorials that put the theory into practice by giving you the skills required to build, test, and secure your own PHP Laravel APIs.

Contents and Overview

This training program includes 2 complete courses, carefully chosen to give you the most comprehensive training possible.

The first course, Building PHP RESTful Web Services, begins with an introduction to the REST architecture, the course goes on to build a complete web service in vanilla PHP. It shows you how to develop APIs that can be consumed by other services. You will learn to test and secure your web services by making use of Silex or Phalcon framework which simplifies the development process. You will also learn how to add reactivity to your web services, gearing you up for the journey to a microservice-based application.

The second course, Building RESTful API with Laravel, will make your client to server communication easier with HTTP requests. You will learn how to develop a real world, RESTful API with Laravel. You will then create an API from scratch, which provides weather information from multiple sources. You will also learn to use multiple libraries and technologies like Dingo API for routing, JSON web tokens for authentication and Travis CI for continuous integration and testing.

By the end of this course, you will be able to create, test, and secure your web services using PHP and Laravel.
