PHP developers develop programs, applications, and web sites using the dynamic scripting language PHP. PHP is known for web development and business applications. Depending on job function, PHP developers may be classified as software developers or web developers. Because the language is so ubiquitous in web site development and business, PHP can be a good choice for self-employed or contract developers.

A PHP web developer may create user interfaces or work behind the scenes. The PHP language is frequently used in combination with SQL for databases. It is also used for basic website functions like accepting usernames and passwords and managing guest books. It can display photo or thumbnail galleries and various other types of dynamic content.
