What makes WordPress so flexible is thanks to the fact that it’s written in two languages: PHP and JavaScript. PHP, for one, is the most popular programming language in the world, powering 84 percent of all websites. Even though PHP has an easy entry barrier, advanced techniques are not always the easiest to learn.
If you’ve been struggling with PHP or are looking to level up your skills, the first step in this process is learning object-oriented programming (OOP). OOP is a style of coding groups with related actions into classes to aid in creating more compact and effective code.
