Ho PHP Meetup: Intro to Backend Systems

Curious about how websites work behind the scenes? The Ho PHP Backend Development Meetup is the perfect starting point for beginners eager to explore the world of backend development.

With the theme “Intro to Backend Systems,” this meetup is designed for those who want to understand how server-side logic powers web apps. We’ll take a beginner-friendly look at PHP—a widely used programming language known for its simplicity and strength in building dynamic websites. You’ll get an introduction to how PHP works, how it connects to databases, and how backend logic interacts with front-end user interfaces.

Whether you’ve dabbled in HTML or never written a line of code before, you’ll find this session accessible and informative. We'll cover core concepts like requests and responses, handling forms, and storing user data—all using basic PHP.

This meetup isn’t about technical perfection—it’s about exploring backend systems together, asking questions, and growing your confidence step by step. Plus, you’ll connect with others in Ho who are also learning and building their skills in tech. It’s a great opportunity to spark your curiosity and discover a new interest or career path.

If you’re ready to take your first steps into backend development, come join us at UHAS Trafalgar Campus and start building from the back end up.
