What you need for this book

You should have a working knowledge of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. It is also preferred—but not required—to have knowledge of a server-side programming language, as we will be manipulating databases later in this book.

The following are the requirements:

• You must have PHP on your computer. This can be done by installing WAMP (http://wampserver.com), XAMPP (https://www.apachefriends.org), or LAMP (https://bitnami.com/stack/lamp/installer).
• You must have a modern web browser such as Chrome, Firefox, IE, or Opera.
