pib VS gs-spring-boot

I'd say don't give anyone bad ideas, but we are too late:

People are weird though - so it IS also technically possible now to compile php to wasm if you really want to write some frontend code in php e.g. https://github.com/oraoto/pib - I'm not sure if that's a joke, intellectual exercise just for fun, or mad php people are really doing that for reals, I'd never use it in reality of course.

Here's an issue i opened a few weeks ago in their repository asking for help but unfortunately nobody replied yet: https://github.com/oraoto/pib/issues/65

Well, it depends on the extensions you're using. Since vscode.dev only runs locally in your browser, all extensions are limited to declarative things like snippets, themes etc. or else they have to use JavaScript or WebAssembly to run. Many extensions (I assume the ones for PHP as well) require platform-native executables, and as such can't currently run the browser. Interestingly, I found this from a quick internet search, but I don't know if any VSCode extension is making use of it yet.

Maybe something like this, then? https://github.com/oraoto/pib

You're welcome. You can do this fairly easily with straight java SE, but once you've done that take look at what Spring has to offer, in particular Spring Boot. Inversion of Control and Dependency Injection are super powerful!

You can try the official documentation on https://spring.io/guides/gs/spring-boot/ There are courses as well. Also you can check out https://www.baeldung.com/spring-boot

Spring does have a broilerplate "get it up and running" project. Go to start.sprint.io , configure whichever stuff you will need, download the project, import it in your IntelliJ, read and implement https://spring.io/guides/gs/spring-boot/ , then run it.

Soring's own guides are pretty good to be honest. https://spring.io/guides/gs/spring-boot/

Not necessarily a book recommendation but I’m a strong believer in actually implementing a project to learn about the tech stack. Spring has a great tutorial: https://spring.io/guides/gs/spring-boot/

Their docs are pretty complete. Here is an example with start to finish: https://spring.io/guides/gs/spring-boot/ It says you only need 15min and some libs.

Spring has a guide.

i use java with spring boot (link), also look up "MVC web development", i use thymeleaf in the html as part of the MVC approach. (i use maven to manage the packages.)
