Resources for Learning PHP as a frontend dev

Does anyone have any good resources for learning PHP? I find that there are plenty of interesting/charismatic/engaging people explaining JavaScript on YouTube but most PHP tutorials I can find are very dry and delivered in a way that I can’t really engage with.

If there are any courses out there which deal with PHP/backend development if you’re already modestly experienced with JavaScript/frontend, that would be ideal, though I’m not sure what that would consist of. My job title is “Junior Full Stack Developer” but after a year in the job I’m still massively winging it whenever I have to do anything in PHP or deal with a database, this really needs to change.

I’m not against spending £/€/$20 on a decent Udemy course or a modest monthly fee.

Thanks in advance.

This is great and free
