00:00:00,980 --> 00:00:04,160
Great job working with
your first PHP framework.

2
00:00:04,160 --> 00:00:08,640
Not only do frameworks help us to
build an application more easily,

3
00:00:08,640 --> 00:00:11,600
they're a good way to see how
other people are using code.

4
00:00:12,800 --> 00:00:15,370
Remember, we're all learning and growing.

5
00:00:15,370 --> 00:00:19,310
If the code you write in six months
looks the same as it does now,

6
00:00:19,310 --> 00:00:20,950
you're doing it wrong.

7
00:00:20,950 --> 00:00:24,020
This principle holds true
throughout your career, so

8
00:00:24,020 --> 00:00:26,310
don't get hung up on the details.

9
00:00:26,310 --> 00:00:28,470
Do your best now and continue to learn.

10
00:00:29,940 --> 00:00:32,870
Slim framework also has a tutorial project

11
00:00:32,870 --> 00:00:36,130
that steps you through even
more features of Slim.

12
00:00:36,130 --> 00:00:40,790
Stepping through that tutorial is a great
next step in your programming journey.

13
00:00:40,790 --> 00:00:44,200
From there,
try out some other PHP frameworks.

14
00:00:44,200 --> 00:00:45,530
I'll include links in the notes.

15
00:00:46,790 --> 00:00:52,200
When jumping into a new framework, use
the same suggestions I've made for Slim.

16
00:00:52,200 --> 00:00:54,430
Step through their tutorial project and

17
00:00:54,430 --> 00:00:57,550
then use their skeleton to
build your own project.

18
00:00:58,690 --> 00:01:02,960
Being familiar with multiple frameworks
not only builds your skills, but

19
00:01:02,960 --> 00:01:06,790
also helps you bring new
ideas to old projects.

20
00:01:06,790 --> 00:01:10,920
It can also expand your network by
introducing you to other people and

21
00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:14,580
communities within the PHP ecosystem.

22
00:01:14,580 --> 00:01:17,850
Have fun, build your skills and
join the community.
