Build a Bot Workshop: Async Primer
Asynchronous software development is rapidly moving from the niche to the mainstream. That mainstream now includes PHP. This workshop will give you hands-on instruction in building an asynchronous application in PHP. We will build a Twitter bot utilizing the Amp concurrency framework for PHP and the Twitter Streaming API. During this time you will learn the basics regarding the Amp event loop, generators and co-routines, and writing non-blocking code. Get ready for the future of PHP today.
