PHP is a general-purpose scripting language that is especially suited to server-side web development, in which case PHP generally runs on a web server. Any PHP code in a requested file is executed by the PHP runtime, usually to create dynamic web page content or dynamic images used on websites or elsewhere. It can also be used for command-line scripting and client-side graphical user interface (GUI) applications. PHP can be deployed on most web servers, many operating systems and platforms, and can be used with many relational database management systems (RDBMS). Most web hosting providers support PHP for use by their clients. It is available free of charge, and the PHP Group provides the complete source code for users to build, customize and extend for their own use.
PHP acts primarily as a filter taking input from a file or stream containing text and/or PHP instructions and outputting another stream of data. Most commonly the output will be HTML, although it could be JSON, XML or binary data such as image or audio formats. Since PHP 4, the PHP parser compiles input to produce bytecode for processing by the Zend Engine, giving improved performance over its interpreter predecessor.
Originally designed to create dynamic web pages, PHP now focuses mainly on server-side scripting, and it is similar to other server-side scripting languages that provide dynamic content from a web server to a client, such as Microsoft's ASP.NET, Sun Microsystems' JavaServer Pages, and mod_perl. PHP has also attracted the development of many software frameworks that provide building blocks and a design structure to promote rapid application development (RAD). Some of these include PRADO, CakePHP, Symfony, CodeIgniter, Laravel, Yii Framework, Phalcon and Zend Framework, offering features similar to other web frameworks.
The LAMP architecture has become popular in the web industry as a way of deploying web applications. PHP is commonly used as the P in this bundle alongside Linux, Apache and MySQL, although the P may also refer to Python, Perl, or some mix of the three. Similar packages, WAMP and MAMP, are also available for Windows and macOS, with the first letter standing for the respective operating system. Although both PHP and Apache are provided as part of the macOS base install, users of these packages seek a simpler installation mechanism that can be more easily kept up to date.

Filipe Contente
CEO & Full Stack Developer
"I believe in motivated teams used to work together. When everybody is in sync, better decisions are made, the focus on the final goals is never lost, and project development is much easier."
Eduardo Pinheiro
CTO & Full Stack Developer
"There are great ideas, cool technology, very nice design but those are only tools to build a product and the product is only a good product if it has results."
Pedro Vicentin
Full Stack Developer
"Coding is not just writing a few lines to meet requirements. You need to be cohesive so that other people understand your ideas, so it's almost like writing a book...except for the fact that you can't forget the semicolon at the end of the line."
Tiago Alves
System Architect & Full Stack Developer
"I believe that great software just gets out of the way."

Testimonial on Manuel Antunes
"What I love about Manuel it’s his no-nonsense approach. You won’t get the usual clichés and buzzwords from him. Instead, it’s all about a deep understanding of the job in hands, and the most effective ways to get it done."
Testimonial on Filipe Contente
"Working with Filipe is believing that the work will be done on schedule, on budget and with extreme quality! Nowadays the technologies are a moving target and we don't have time to be up to date to every state-of-the-art piece of framework or tech launched. However, for Filipe, there isn't a single challenge that can't be done. I trust him and his team."
Testimonial on Manuel Antunes
"I love working with Manuel. He adds strategy to his design skills and a sense for what works. A design brief can easily evolve to a brainstorm, with great new ideas being generated every time. Design works when the message is clear and the target nods their head."
Testimonial on Filipe Contente
"Working with Filipe you get so much more than a FullStack developer. At times I felt he knew more about the business than myself. He always questions decisions and forced good development briefings. In fact he was always more worried about understanding the big picture and customer side before diving into the development needs and that makes all the diference. With Filipe you get a business partner that is also a full stack developer. Thank you very much, it was a pleasure working with you."
Testimonial on Eduardo Pinheiro
"Eduardo Pinheiro is a passionate and persistent engineer and entrepreneur. Eduardo’s penetrating mind allows him to portray incredible work and thrive on any new challenges."
