Episode 42 - What Does It Take To Start Using Zend Expressive?

What does it take to start using Zend Expressive? That’s the question I ask in the latest post on Master Zend Framework [https://www.masterzendframework.com/what-does-it-take-to-get-started-with-zend-expressive/] and discuss in this episode. Honestly, Zend Framework — and especially Zend Expressive — aren’t hard to get started with! So in this episode (and post) I set out to explode that myth. Along with that, I’ve got some community news, specifically posts in the community, along with some package updates.

Episode 40 - Zend Expressive Essentials - The Course - Is Underway

In this episode, I’m super excited to announce that Pluralsight have given me the go-ahead to create a new course: Zend Expressive Essentials! That’s right, a new course, based on the recently published book (of the same name) Zend Expressive Essentials [https://masterzendframework.com/zend-expressive-essentials/]. If you bought the book, I’m confident you’ll be interested in taking the course. If you didn’t buy the book, here’s a sneak peak at what’s on offer: * An Introduction to Zend Expressive (core concepts and theory). * Creation of an application by hand. * Creation of an application using the command-line tooling support. * Integration of third-party libraries and packages. * Creation of powerful middleware pipelines.
