PHP: Extensions
Date and time
Description
We are pleased to announce the February 2013 event for PHP North East, PHP: Extensions.
The event will take place at the Post Office in Pink Lane (@PostOfficeNE1) courtesy of PNE. Thanks to the generous sponsorship of Laura Sharpe of Sharpe Recruitment, there will once again be a stack of pizzas for you to enjoy before the talk. The event is free and open to all, but please sign up online so that we have an idea of numbers for the venue, and how much Laura needs to cough up for the pizzas. Feedback, suggestions and ideas for future topics are welcome on our Google Group.
Please promote this event via Twitter or your own website to help us spread the word.
PHP: Extensions - by Harry Lawrence
PHP extensions are used frequently, many of which come bundled with PHP, others we download and configure manually.
In this talk I'll be going through some of the pros and cons of PHP extensions, looking at various examples and seeing what it takes to build some simple PHP extensions that could potentially be used in some of your own projects.
Harry is a web developer working at Ground Six, mainly on PHP related projects but has a keen interest in trying out different languages, and iOS development.
After the talk, many of us will be heading over to The Town Wall pub opposite for a few refreshing beverages, please feel free to join us afterwards too!
