Question

career question

Answer 1

To learn php, first learn html, css and javascript in detail.Sololearn's apps and W3Schools is a very helpful place for this. Spend your free time coding. Don't think of coding as work. Think of coding as a fun time activity. After learning these three courses, start php. You cannot make a career only with php. I think that you want to be a web developer. So for that u need all 4 of the above courses. Try to get as much for the net as possible. Resources will always be constrained. When you get hold of these courses try to make a small website of your own. You don't need to be all alone. Ask help from your friends, work in groups. Teamwork is the best way to learn.

Answer 2

Eclipse is the IDE for java, bootstrap is for developing webpages. Decide which you want to do and then work accordingly. First grip the basics fully

Answer 3

if you want to practice, you can do some algorithm puzzle on codingame.com or hackerrank.com and if you want learn more about php look the documentation on php.net or orher site for beginner like codecademy.com courses. don't forget that Google is your friend !

Answer 4

if you want to make career in PHP first you have to learn HTML, CSS. If you want to learn PHP by yourself then I suggest these websites.
w3schools.com
thenewbiston.com
tutorialspoint.com
these website will help you in understanding PHP in a very simple manner.
like many other web languages PHP does not require any software but it does require a server.
there are many ide's like NetBeans, PHPstorm, etc. but just a Notepad is enough for you on the beginners level
