Discover how stronger types mean cleaner, more efficient, and
optimized PHP applications. This unique book looks at typed PHP:
PHP types, strings, regular expressions, and more from PHP 7 as
found in standard PHP libraries, user libraries, extensions, and
cross-compilers. You'll see how to create a set of reusable tools
that unify and ease the scalar types of PHP. PHP has a rich history
and a dominant place on the web. It has achieved much despite
language inconsistencies and difficulties. Bjarne Stroustrup once
said: "There are only two kinds of languages: the ones people
complain about and the ones nobody uses". PHP is one of those
languages that everybody uses, yet that's often seen as a good
reason to ignore the bad parts and just get stuff done. We're all
for getting stuff done, and to that end, the author has used Plain
Ol' PHP for many years. It's always bugged him how procedural PHP
is, in an ecosystem of OOP libraries and frameworks. So he decided
to take a deeper look at building a stronger type system on top of
PHP. That's the goal of this book. What You'll Learn Discover the
fundamentals of PHP strings, regex, underscores, native function
inconsistencies, and more Examine the structure of PHP types
including boxing, regex, namespace functions, composer autoload,
null problem, optional values, and more Work with extensions like
vagrant + phansible, provisioning, vagrant commands, SPL types,
scalar objects, zephir, and more Design using scalar, SPL, zephir,
structure types, resolving types, chaining, combining number types,
PHPUnit, packaging, and more Plan for the future using a case study
example Who This Book Is For Experienced web developers and PHP
programmers.
Examine the building blocks that make any good MVC framework using
PHP 8. This book exposes all the considerations that many
developers take for granted when using a popular framework, and
teaches you how to make this MVC framework your own. You'll quickly
get started writing your first bit of framework code, then, you
build a variety of examples using aspects of an MVC framework,
including a router, a template engine, a database library, a
persistence engine (ORM), and a testing framework. In the next
section, you'll implement sessions, caches, file systems, queues,
logging, and mail. You'll wrap up by building a larger scale sample
web application: a sales website for a company that sells rockets.
Along the way, this book lays bare all the secret parts of MVC to
take with you to apply to your own PHP-based MVC projects. What You
Will Learn Build PHP-based web applications using the model view
controller (MVC) architecture Write your first bit of framework
code Compare the code you write with how the popular frameworks do
the same kinds of things Create various aspects of applications,
engines, and other frameworks Wrap up with a sample case study
application Who This Book Is For Experienced PHP and web
developers. Some prior experience with PHP and web development at
least recommended.
Learn the tricks of simple procedural generation and how various
genres, such as racing simulators, platformers, and roguelikes, can
all benefit from these techniques. In this book, you'll learn how
to combine hand-crafted content with algorithms to create immersive
and beautiful environments. You'll learn how to create a seeding
system, so that you can replay great levels with your friends.
We'll cover how to create good tilesets, how to use the tilemap
editor effectively, and how to inject just the right amount of
logic into an otherwise automated machine that is your own personal
procedural content generation engine. We will use 2D examples to
demonstrate the concepts covered throughout the book. By the time
you complete this book, you'll have a good handle on how to add
procedural generation to your games. What You Will Learn Learn to
set up the perfect content generation system Master the tools for
randomization and repeatability Understand how much content to
craft versus how much to generate Who This Book Is For Basic
familiarity with the Godot engine and GDScript is essential. While
all concepts are explained in the book, it can be overwhelming
learning these techniques at the same time as learning the engine.
Learn everything you need to master the AdonisJs framework,
including topics such as interacting with a database, rendering
templates, writing asynchronous code, and hosting sites with SSL.
Along the way, you'll see how to build a commerce application,
which lists products and allows shoppers to register and purchase
those products. The site will feature a product catalog, a shopping
cart, user registration and login, and profile management. The
Definitive Guide to AdonisJs also covers how to create a front-end
build chain, so that you can use a modern front-end framework, such
as React. You'll discover how to connect your front end to the
server, so that data and transactions can be shared between the
two. Finally, you'll see how to secure and deploy the application
to a virtual private server, including how to apply for and install
an SSL certificate and start accepting payments. After reading and
using this book, you'll know all you need about AdonisJs. You'll
have the tools to turn that side-project you've been thinking about
into a real money-making product. It is written by a web expert and
reviewed by the AdonisJs project lead. This is the complete
start-to-finish guide you've been waiting for. What You'll Learn
Set up Node.js and AdonisJs, so that you can start building your
application Create and use views and template code Implement

framework errors with custom error pages Learn the deeper parts of

1782. A collection containing his miscellanies, epistles, odes,
paraphrases and imitations by Pitt, who is also known for his
translation of Virgil.
This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the
original. Due to its age, it may contain imperfections such as
marks, notations, marginalia and flawed pages. Because we believe
this work is culturally important, we have made it available as
part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting
the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions
that are true to the original work.
With James Christopher Pitts' debut literary offering, The
Conscience Market, the reader is drawn into a journey through
extremes. Visions of a paranoid and alarming world of modern
conspiracies and opportunistic war mongering are held at balance
with idealistic poetry celebrating humanity, love, and the arts.
Pitts challenges many of our longest held traditions and prejudices
with an uncanny knack for sarcasm, humor, and aggressive wit, at
times assuming the role of an agitated, yet impassioned
philosopher. Religion, political systems, extreme nationalism, and
the apathy of the general population of the Western world are given
no quarter, as these corrupt institutions are displayed in all of
their hypocrisy in The Conscience Market.
