PHP
PHP is a popular server-side programming language used to build dynamic websites and web applications. It runs on the web server, processes data, and generates HTML that’s sent to users’ browsers. Unlike HTML and CSS, which handle visual elements, PHP manages functionality like form processing, database interactions, and user authentication. Many content management systems, including WordPress, are built using PHP.
