This repo contains a proposal for the new tutorial on php.net. The idea is to create a better introduction tutorial for the language. The goal is to help new people getting started using PHP and at the same time educate people in best practices.
The topics of this tutorial should contain all the information neccesary for people to create their first project using PHP while considering the level of people who will use it: namely: people new to the language.
For questions, suggestion or discussions use the issue tracker.
