Laminas Master

Laminas (formerly Zend Framework) Master course is designed for proficient PHP programmers, already familiar and working with Laminas, who want to polish their skills and incorporate cutting-edge Laminas technologies into their applications. The course is designed around a series of practical use cases, guiding the developer in using Laminas to make their code streamlined, secure, and interoperable with other frameworks.

What Will You Learn?

In the Laminas Master course you polish your skills and knowledge of Laminas MVC.

More importantly, you learn how to develop a PSR-7 and PSR-15 compliant middleware application using the low overhead micro framework Mezzio (formerly Zend Expressive).

The course starts out with a discussion of the Domain Model, and how you can accomplish database to object relational mapping (ORM) using the Doctrine ORM library. It then shows you advanced techniques in service container usage.

Next you learn how to incorporate the Laminas event system to not only produce full entity class instances after a database query, but also how to produce "lazy services" that defer processing and thus improving performance. You then gain valuable insights into how cryptography and hashing work, and how to implement encryption in a Laminas application.

This course module also shows you how to authenticate users from external sources such as Facebook, Twitter, or Google.

At the end of the course are two modules that show you advanced hydrator usage, using Laminas from the command line, and how to integrate translation and internationalized formats into your applications.

What Will You Be Able to Achieve?

After following this course, you achieve the following results:

• Increased customer satisfaction by making your Laminas app run faster with less redundancy, optimizing performance through "lazy" loading.
• Master the integration of Oauth2 PHP clients with Laminas\Authentication.
• Model complex data needs which were previously unthinkable by learning how to install, configure and use the Doctrine Module for Laminas.
• Include a vast array of third party open source framework libraries by incorporating middleware which fits into your existing Laminas-MVC structure.
• Expand the reach of your audience by delivering content to an international audience.
• Easily make your website application multi-lingual by applying Laminas translation classes to forms, menus and routes.
• Better control database modifications by creating model classes which automatically trigger before or after events.
• Reduce your legal liability by encrypting sensitive data using the latest and most secure technology.
